ALT_MSG_MAP

Artigo
12/01/2015

Marks the beginning of an alternate message map.

Syntax

ALT_MSG_MAP( msgMapID )

Parameters

msgMapID
[in] The message map identifier.

Remarks

ATL identifies each message map by a number. The default message map (declared with the BEGIN_MSG_MAP macro) is identified by 0. An alternate message map is identified by msgMapID.

Message maps are used to process messages sent to a window. For example, CContainedWindow allows you to specify the identifier of a message map in the containing object. CContainedWindow::WindowProc then uses this message map to direct the contained window's messages either to the appropriate handler function or to another message map. For a list of macros that declare handler functions, see BEGIN_MSG_MAP.

Always begin a message map with BEGIN_MSG_MAP. You can then declare subsequent alternate message maps.

The END_MSG_MAP macro marks the end of the message map. Note that there is always exactly one instance of BEGIN_MSG_MAP and END_MSG_MAP.

For more information about using message maps in ATL, see Message Maps.

Example

The following example shows the default message map and one alternate message map, each containing one handler function:

BEGIN_MSG_MAP(CMyOneAltClass)
   MESSAGE_HANDLER(WM_PAINT, OnPaint)
ALT_MSG_MAP(1)
   MESSAGE_HANDLER(WM_SETFOCUS, OnSetFocus)
END_MSG_MAP()

The next example shows two alternate message maps. The default message map is empty.

BEGIN_MSG_MAP(CMyClass)
ALT_MSG_MAP(1)
   MESSAGE_HANDLER(WM_PAINT, OnPaint)
   MESSAGE_HANDLER(WM_SETFOCUS, OnSetFocus)
ALT_MSG_MAP(2)
   MESSAGE_HANDLER(WM_CREATE, OnCreate)
END_MSG_MAP()
