Stubbed implementations and Windows objects

[Ian D. Stewart]

I am currently in the process of implementing a stubbed version of 
ctl3d.dll.  For functions that return BOOL, I'm printing a fixme and 
then returning TRUE.  What is the convention for stubbed 
implementations that return a Windows object (HBRUSH, HWND, etc)?


Thanx,
Ian

I think that you better should try to return real GDI object handles
returned by GetStockObject or GetSysColorBrush. Regarding HWNDs: what
ctl3d function is supposed to return window handles?

Ah, that's what I was looking for, thank you!  (I'm still kinda new to 
this windows programming stuff)

None, it was really more of a general question.


Thanx again,
