Contains the size and position of either a primary or secondary Help window. An application can set this information by calling the WinHelp function with the HELP_SETWINPOS value.
Type: int
The size of this structure, in bytes.
Type: int
X-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the window, in screen coordinates.
Type: int
Y-coordinate of the upper-left corner of the window, in screen coordinates.
Type: int
The width of the window, in pixels.
Type: int
The height of the window, in pixels.
Type: int
Options for display of the window. It can be any of the values that can be specified in the nCmdShow parameter for the ShowWindow function.
Type: TCHAR[2]
The name of the window.
Windows Help divides the display into 1024 units in both the X and Y directions. To create a secondary window that fills the upper-left quadrant of the display, for example, an application would specify zero for the x and y members and 512 for the dx and dy members.
To calculate wStructSize properly, the actual size of the string to be stored at rgchMember must be known. Since sizeof(HELPWININFO) includes two TCHARs by definition, they must be taken into account in the final total. The following example shows the proper calculation of an instance of wStructSize.
WORD wSize;
TCHAR *szWndName = TEXT("wnd_menu");
size_t NameLength;
HRESULT hr;
HELPWININFO hwi;
// StringCbLength returns the length of the string without
// the terminating null character.
hr = StringCbLength(szWndName, STRSAFE_MAX_CCH * sizeof(TCHAR), &NameLength);
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
// Add bytes to account for the name string's terminating null character.
NameLength + sizeof(TCHAR);
// Determine the size of HELPWININFO without the TCHAR array.
wSize = sizeof(HELPWININFO) - (2 * sizeof(TCHAR));
// Determine the total size of the final HELPWININFO structure.
hwi.wStructSize = wSize + NameLength;
}
Note
The winuser.h header defines HELPWININFO as an alias which automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.
