How far should I go?

[Snip]

Recently I started learning C++ and so far I like what I get (always programmed in C before). I have a question concerning classes, though not really a coding problem.

I'm creating a class that'll handle my OpenGL window. My question is: should I be creating functions that simply call a win32 api function with only one extra argument (most of the time the window handle). Here's an example:

One of the member functions is GetHandle(), which returns the window handle. Now for moving the window, I could create my own function:

void GLWindow::SetPos(int x, int y)
{
    SetWindowPos(this->handle, HWND_TOP, x, y, 0, 0, SWP_NOSIZE);
}

but instead of using my own SetPos() function, I could also simply do this:

SetWindowPos(object.GetHandle(), HWND_TOP, x, y, 0, 0, SWP_NOSIZE);

So are there advantages if I create my own member function, or is that useless?

Yes, the member function is easy to read, which makes what it does easy to understand, and the member function hides the complexity of what you are doing, i.e. dealing with the hieroglyphic-esque win32 api.
