CWnd::OnWinIniChange

Syntax

afx_msg void OnWinIniChange( LPSTR lpSection );

Parameters

lpSection

Points to a string that specifies the name of the section that has changed (the string does not include the square brackets).

Remarks

Called after a change has been made to the Windows initialization file, WIN.INI.

To send the WM_WININICHANGE message to all top-level windows, an application can use the SendMessage Windows function with the hWnd parameter set to 0xFFFF.

If an application changes many different sections in WIN.INI at the same time, the application should send one WM_WININICHANGE message with lpSection set to NULL. Otherwise, an application should send WM_WININICHANGE each time it makes a change to WIN.INI.

If an application receives an OnWinIniChange call with lpSection set to NULL, the application should check all sections in WIN.INI that affect the application.

This message-handler member function calls the Default member function. Override this member function in your derived class to handle the WM_WININICHANGE message.
