PropertySheet (Windows CE 5.0)

Send Feedback

This function creates a property sheet and adds the pages defined in the specified property sheet header structure.

intPropertySheet(LPCPROPSHEETHEADERlppsph );

Parameters

  • lppsph
    [in] Long pointer to a PROPSHEETHEADER structure that defines the frame and pages of a property sheet.

Return Values

A positive value indicates success. –1 indicates failure.

If the dwFlags member of the PROPSHEETHEADER structure specifies the PSH_MODELESS flag, the successful return value is the window handle to the property sheet dialog.

The return values described in the following table have a special meaning.

Value Description
ID_PSREBOOTSYSTEM A page sent the PSM_REBOOTSYSTEM message to the property sheet. The computer must be restarted for the user's changes to take effect.
ID_PSRESTARTWINDOWS A page sent the PSM_RESTARTWINDOWS message to the property sheet. Windows must be restarted for the user's changes to take effect.

To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks

By default, PropertySheet creates a modal dialog. If the dwFlags member of the PROPSHEETHEADER structure specifies the PSH_MODELESS flag, PropertySheet creates a modeless dialog and returns immediately after the dialog is created. In this case, the PropertySheet return value is the window handle to the modeless dialog.

For a modeless property sheet, your message loop should use PSM_ISDIALOGMESSAGE to pass messages to the property sheet dialog. Your message loop should use PSM_GETCURRENTPAGEHWND to determine when to destroy the dialog. When the user chooses the OK or Cancel button, PSM_GETCURRENTPAGEHWND returns NULL, and you can then use the DestroyWindow function to destroy the dialog box.

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows CE 1.0 and later.
Header: Prsht.h.
