The following code uses Win32++ to create a window.  This is all the code you need (in combination with Win32++) to create and display a simple window.  Note that in order to add the Win32++ code to our program, we use an #include statement as shown below. 

#include "wxx_wincore.h"

// Note:  
//  Add the Win32++\include  directory to project's additional include directories.


// A class that inherits from CWnd. It is used to create the window.
class CMyWindow : public CWnd
{
public:
  CMyWindow() {}
  virtual void OnDestroy() { PostQuitMessage(0); }	// Ends the program.
  virtual ~CMyWindow() {}
};


int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE, HINSTANCE, LPSTR, int)
{
  // Start Win32++.
  CWinApp myApp;

  // Create a CMyWindow object.
  CMyWindow myWindow;

  // Create (and display) the window.
  myWindow.Create();

  // Run the application's message loop.
  return myApp.Run();
}

This program has four key steps:

• Start Win32++.  We do this here by creating a CWinApp object called myApp.
• Create a CMyWindow object called myWindow.
• Create a default window by calling the Create function.
• Start the message loop, by calling the Run function.

The CMyWindow class inherits from CWnd. CWnd is the base class for all objects used to create windows. We override the OnDestroy function of CWnd to end the program when the window is closed.
