To support message maps, MFC supplies the following macros:
Message-Map Declaration and Demarcation Macros
DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP | Declares that a message map will be used in a class to map messages to functions (must be used in the class declaration). |
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP | Begins the definition of a message map (must be used in the class implementation). |
END_MESSAGE_MAP | Ends the definition of a message map (must be used in the class implementation). |
ON_COMMAND | Indicates which function will handle a specified command message. |
ON_CONTROL | Indicates which function will handle a specified control-notification message. |
ON_MESSAGE | Indicates which function will handle a user-defined message. |
ON_OLECMD | Indicates which function will handle a menu command from a DocObject or its container. |
ON_REGISTERED_MESSAGE | Indicates which function will handle a registered user-defined message. |
ON_REGISTERED_THREAD_MESSAGE | Indicates which function will handle a registered user-defined message when you have a CWinThread class. |
ON_THREAD_MESSAGE | Indicates which function will handle a user-defined message when you have a CWinThread class. |
ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI | Indicates which function will handle a specified user-interface update command message. |
ON_COMMAND_RANGE | Indicates which function will handle the range of command IDs specified in the first two parameters to the macro. |
ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI_RANGE | Indicates which update handler will handle the range of command IDs specified in the first two parameters to the macro. |
ON_CONTROL_RANGE | Indicates which function will handle notifications from the range of control IDs specified in the second and third parameters to the macro. The first parameter is a control-notification message, such as BN_CLICKED. |
