WM_PAINT through DefWindowProc

When the WM_PAINT messages is passed through the DefWindowProc of my child window, The child window closes. I can't draw on the window my self! Any Idea's what the problem could be?

Thanx in advance!

after using some messageboxes I have found out that my child window resieves infinite number of WM_PAINT messages.

I don't know if I created the window correctly but I think I did. I have a window at the top lwith the minimize etc.. And it has a child window in that child window there is another childwindow. This childwindow is the one that gets infinit of wm_PAINT messages.

Any Idea's will be greatly apreciated.

Thanx in advance!

Post some code.

I created a dll. If I create windows from the dll it doesn't work. But I took all of it and transfered it all to an exe project. Now it works.

Can a dll create a window? If so what changes should I make?

Thanx in advance!

ok heres code
This is for the first child window:
.classex is the wndclassex which gets registered after and class.dwstyle and class.exstyle are for the createwindowex parameters. I spend a while clearing only the inrevelent:

Code:

---

Class.ClassEx.cbSize              = sizeof(WNDCLASSEX);
Class.ClassEx.hInstance          = g_ins;
#ifdef _UNICODE
Class.ClassEx.lpszClassName      = L"CodeCTRLBASE";
#else
Class.ClassEx.lpszClassName      = "CodeCTRLBASE";
#endif
Class.ClassEx.hbrBackground      = NULL;
Class.ExStyle                    = 0;
Class.dwStyle                    = WS_BORDER|WS_CHILD |WS_VISIBLE|WS_CLIPCHILDREN;
Class.ClassEx.cbWndExtra          = 0;
Class.ClassEx.cbClsExtra          = 0;
Class.ClassEx.hIconSm            = 0;
Class.ClassEx.lpszMenuName        = NULL;
Class.ClassEx.style              = CS_DBLCLKS;
Class.ClassEx.lpfnWndProc        = &BasicProc;
Class.ClassEx.hIcon              = NULL;
Class.ClassEx.hCursor            = 0;

---

This next piece is for the child window inside the child window above.

Code:

---

memset(&Class,0, sizeof(CodeClass));
Class.ClassEx.cbSize              = sizeof(WNDCLASSEX);
Class.ClassEx.hInstance          = g_ins;
Class.ClassEx.hbrBackground      = 0;
Class.ExStyle                    = 0;
Class.ClassEx.hCursor            = LoadCursor(NULL, RESOURCE(IDC_ARROW));
Class.ClassEx.cbWndExtra          = 0;
Class.ClassEx.cbClsExtra          = 0;
Class.ClassEx.hIconSm            = 0;
Class.ClassEx.lpszMenuName        = NULL;
Class.ClassEx.style              = CS_DBLCLKS;
Class.ClassEx.lpfnWndProc        = &BasicProc;
Class.ClassEx.hIcon              = NULL;
Class.ClassEx.lpfnWndProc          = CodePROC;
Class.ClassEx.hbrBackground      = 0;
#ifdef _UNICODE
Class.ClassEx.lpszClassName          = L"CodeCTRLFRONT";
#else
Class.ClassEx.lpszClassName          = "CodeCTRLFRONT";
#endif
Class.dwStyle                    = WS_CHILD| WS_VISIBLE | WS_VSCROLL | WS_HSCROLL;
Class.ClassEx.cbSize = sizeof(WNDCLASSEX);

---

I did my best in clearing whats not relevent to the creation of the window. Any help would be greatly apreciated.
EDIT:
I found out that bitblt or setpixel or other image api's don't work. But the only api that works is TextOut.

Thanx in advance!
