创建Message-Only 窗口

Message-Only的作用是什么？

根据MSDN的回答，

 

只有消息窗口允许您发送和接收消息。它不可见，没有z顺序，无法枚举，并且不接收广播消息。窗口只是发送消息。

 

要创建仅消息窗口，请在CreateWindowEx函数的hWndParent参数中指定HWND_MESSAGE常量或现有仅消息窗口的句柄。您还可以通过在SetParent函数的hWndNewParent参数中指定HWND_MESSAGE，将现有窗口更改为只显示消息的窗口。

 

要仅查找消息窗口，请在FindWindowEx函数的HwndParent参数中指定HWND_MESSAGE。此外，如果HwndParent和HwndChildAfter参数均为空，则FindWindowEx只搜索消息窗口以及顶级窗口。

一个简单的样本展示，可以直接拷到VS里面编译

#include <windows.h>
LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc(HWND hWnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
	switch (message)
	{
	case WM_CREATE:
	//	MessageBox(NULL, "WM_CREATE", "Message", 0);
		break;
	case WM_DEVICECHANGE:
		MessageBox(NULL, "WM_DEVICECHANGE", "Message", 0);//USB设备插拔提示
	default:
		return DefWindowProc(hWnd, message, wParam, lParam);
	}
	return 0;
}
int main()
{
	static const char* class_name = "NAME_CLASS";
	WNDCLASSEX wx = {};
	HWND hwnd;
	HINSTANCE hInstance = GetModuleHandleA(NULL);
	wx.cbSize = sizeof(WNDCLASSEX);
	wx.lpfnWndProc = WndProc;        // function which will handle messages
	wx.hInstance = hInstance;
	wx.lpszClassName = class_name;
	if (RegisterClassEx(&wx)) {
		hwnd = CreateWindowEx(0, class_name, "Title", 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, HWND_MESSAGE, NULL, NULL, NULL);
		//  Create a normal top-level window which can receive the broadcast messages. 
	}
	HACCEL hAccelTable = LoadAccelerators(hInstance, class_name);
	MSG msg;
	while (GetMessage(&msg, nullptr, 0, 0))
	{
		if (!TranslateAccelerator(msg.hwnd, hAccelTable, &msg))
		{
			TranslateMessage(&msg);
			DispatchMessage(&msg);
		}
	}

	return (int)msg.wParam;
}
