I was discussing Win32 programming with an associate today. Which prompted me to go back and look at code from nearly 10 years ago. Here it is:

int PASCAL
WinMain(
    HINSTANCE hInstance,
    HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
    LPSTR     lpszCmdParam,
    int       nCmdShow
    )


{
    HWND      hwnd;
    MSG       msg;
    WNDCLASS  wndclass;

    hInst=hInstance;

    if (!hPrevInstance) {

         wndclass.style        =  CS_HREDRAW | CS_VREDRAW;
         wndclass.lpfnWndProc  =  WndProc;
         wndclass.cbClsExtra   =  0;
         wndclass.cbWndExtra   =  sizeof(PVOID);
         wndclass.hInstance    =  hInstance;
         wndclass.hIcon        =  LoadIcon (hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(3000));
         wndclass.hCursor      =  LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW);
         wndclass.hbrBackground=  GetStockObject(WHITE_BRUSH);
     wndclass.lpszMenuName =  TEXT("GenericMenu");
     wndclass.lpszClassName=  szAppName;

         RegisterClass(&wndclass);
    }


    hwnd = CreateWindow (szAppName,
                         szWindowTitle,
                         WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,
                         CW_USEDEFAULT,
                         CW_USEDEFAULT,
                         CW_USEDEFAULT,
                         CW_USEDEFAULT,
                         NULL,
                         NULL,
                         hInstance,
                         NULL);

    ShowWindow (hwnd,nCmdShow);
    UpdateWindow(hwnd);

    while (GetMessage (&msg, NULL, 0,0)) {

        TranslateMessage(&msg);
        DispatchMessage(&msg);

    }

    return (msg.wParam);
}

Anyone remember what all this does? ;) LOL Here's how I do it today:

[STAThread]
static void Main() 
{
	Application.Run(new Form1());
}
public class Form1 : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{

	private System.ComponentModel.Container components = null;

	public Form1()
	{
	}
}
