ShowWindow(hWnd,nCmd)为啥第一次必须得用WinMain function's nCmdShow 参数呢？

From MSDN: BOOL ShowWindow(          HWND hWnd,
    int nCmdShow
);

 

Remarks

The first time an application calls ShowWindow, it should use the WinMain function's nCmdShow parameter as its nCmdShow parameter. Subsequent calls to ShowWindow must use one of the values in the given list, instead of the one specified by the WinMain function's nCmdShow parameter.

 

如题，为啥呢？
