UnregisterClass
The UnregisterClass function removes a window class, freeing the memory required for the class.
BOOL UnregisterClass(
LPCTSTR lpClassName,
| // address of class name string
| HINSTANCE hInstance
| // handle of application instance
| );
|
|
Parameters
lpClassName
Points to a null-terminated string or is an integer atom. If this parameter is
an integer atom, it must be a global atom created by a previous call to the GlobalAddAtom function. The atom, a 16-bit value less than 0xC000, must be in the low-order
word of lpClassName; the high-order word must be zero.
If lpClassName is a string, it specifies the window class name. This class name must have
been registered by a previous call to the RegisterClass function. System global classes, such as dialog box controls, cannot be
unregistered.
hInstance
Identifies the instance of the module that created the class.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the class could not be found or if a window still exists that was created
with the class, the return value is zero. To get extended error information,
call GetLastError.
Remarks
Before calling this function, an application must destroy all windows created
with the specified class.
All window classes that an application registers are unregistered when it
terminates.
