Sends a create win command to a remote computer.

Parameter

Description

plRemoteComp

Instance of the remote computer to which the command will be sent.

uCommandID

Command ID. Each command sent by a member of a connection should have a unique ID. Since a member of a connection may send several commands, this ID allows that member to identify when a specific command request has been completed.

pszClassName

Character string containing the class name for which to register the window. This must be a valid string, and should be related to your application, to avoid conflicting with an existing registered window class name.

pszWindowName

Character string containing the name of the window. This parameter can be an empty string ("").

ulFlags

Flags that indicate how to create the window. It is recommended to use the same flags shown in CreateWindow in the Microsoft SDK. However, you can pass 0 if you do not wish to use ulFlags, or you can define your own flags.

nLeft

X coordinate for the origin of the window to create.

nTop

Y coordinate for the origin of the window to create.

nWidth

Requested width of the window's client area.

nHeight

Requested height of the window's client area.

uParentID

Id of the parent or owner window of the window being created.

Returns

SUCCESS

This function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

The remote computer should respond by calling LInet::SendCreateWinRsp in its LInet::CommandCallBack function.

With this command, the local computer will signal the remote computer to create a window using the specified parameters. The window identifier will be sent in the response to this command.

To process responses to commands, a class must be derived from LInet and the LInet::ResponseCallBackmember function must be overridden.

The LInet::CommandCallBackfunction will receive the pszClassName, pszWindowName, ulFlags, nLeft, nTop, nWidth, nHeight and uParentID information in the pParams parameter. The pszClassName information will be in pParams[0]. The pszWindowName information will be in pParams[1], the ulFlags information will be in pParams[2], and so forth.
