InitCommonControlsEx3w

Usage

Overview

Registers the common controls.

Params

lpInitCtrls [In] pointer to an INITCOMMONCONTROLS structure.

Returns

Success: TRUE

Failure: FALSE.

Notes

Probably all versions of comctl32 initializes the Win95 controls in DllMain during dll initialization. Starting from comctl32 v5.82 all the controls are initialized there. We follow this behaviour and this function is just a dummy.

Note: when writing programs under Windows, if you don't call any function from comctl32 the linker may not link this DLL. If InitCommonControlsEx was the only comctl32 function you were calling and you remove it you may have a FALSE impression that InitCommonControlsEx actually did something.

Implementation

Declared in "commctrl.h".

Implemented in "dlls/comctl32/commctrl.c".

Debug channel "commctrl".
