To skin your window, you must first catch your window. Unfortunately, try/catch are C++ only, and therefore off-topic in comp.lang.c. However, I strongly suspect that if you'd ever bothered to read the FAQ for comp.lang.c++ or even one week of that newsgroup, it would have been {filter}y obvious that it's off-topic there, as well.

Is that a typo or are you just thick enough to put comp.lang.c although that is a completely different newsgroup from this one? :-s

The term "this one" is not well-defined for a posting which has been cross-posted to three newsgroups. Therefore, your question does not make any sense at all. Martin

Skinned window CAN BE written in C. Do you know that entire windows applications are written in pure C? It's not off-topic here. If you don't know the answer, please do not call the question "off-topic". SD

Please show us exactly HOW to write skinned windows in pure C. Hint: The MS-Windows API is NOT pure C!

"Pure" ISO/ANSI C? Forgive me my skepticism, but I doubt that. Quote: > It's not off-topic here. > If you don't know the answer, please do not call the question "off-topic".

Unfortunately, the probability of a person thinking he/she knows everything about a topic is often inversely proportional to the amount he/she actually knows about the topic. I've seen this on other newsgroups as well. -- \| Kingpriest of "The Flying Lemon Tree" G++ FR FW+ M- #108 D+ ADA N+++\| \| http://www.helsinki.fi/~palaste W++ B OP+ \| \----------------------------------------- Finland rules! ------------/ "How come even in my fantasies everyone is a jerk?" - Daria Morgendorfer

Demonstrate, please. In real C, not in some MicroS**t perversion of same. Richard

Not in ISO C alone, it can't. You need extensions, such as library routines that do windowing things. Quote: > Do you know that entire windows applications are written in pure C? No. What's more, I know that no windowing applications are written in pure (ISO) C. They use additional libraries. Quote: > It's not off-topic here. It is; all such libraries are system-specific; what we deal with here are the system-independant aspects of C, which turn out to be quite rich enough to support a busy newsgroup.

Well, to be honest, my point of having to try/catch your window before being able to skin it _was_ just slightly facetious... Richard

What is a relation between "window" and "catch the window"? And why does he mention "try/catch"? How can someone "catch" the window? Why does this term "catch" related to "try/catch" keywords of C++? It is definitely nonsense. I think this guy doesn't even realize what does "skin a window" mean. SD

In real C, not in some MicroS**t perversion of > same. I mean "pure C" is a C without any C++ extensions. Sorry if I didn't make myself clear. Anyway, First, we should decide for what operating system we would like to create skinned windows. And next, someone can ask me for "demonstrate". MS Windows's windows cannot be created without help of Windows API, Linux's windows cannot be created without Motif/Lesstif/Qt API. Otherwise we pretend to duplucate the entire code of a operating system's GUI. Ok someone requested me to demonstrate... The answer is quite clear. Regardless the type of OS in use, the major steps are 1) Obtain the window's region. 2) Load the bitmap to the memory 3) Attach the bitmap to this region. 4) Redefine repaint messages to tell the system to always update the window with its new 'skin'. Do you think those operations is out of scope in C? Can it be performed via C++ only? Definitely not. SD
