CHAIN_MSG_MAP_ALT( theChainClass, msgMapID )
Parameters
theChainClass
[in] The name of the base class containing the message map.
msgMapID
[in] The message map identifier.
Remarks
Defines an entry in a message map. CHAIN_MSG_MAP_ALT directs messages to an alternate message map in a base class. You must have declared this alternate message map with ALT_MSG_MAP(msgMapID). To direct messages to a base class's default message map (declared with BEGIN_MSG_MAP), use CHAIN_MSG_MAP. For an example, see CHAIN_MSG_MAP.
Note Always begin a message map with BEGIN_MSG_MAP. You can then declare subsequent alternate message maps with ALT_MSG_MAP. The END_MSG_MAP macro marks the end of the message map. Every message map must have exactly one instance of BEGIN_MSG_MAP and END_MSG_MAP.
For more information about using message maps in ATL, see Message Maps in the article "ATL Window Classes."
