The information in this article applies to:

  • The Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) included with: 

        - Microsoft C/C++ version 7.0
    - Microsoft Visual C++ for Windows, versions 1.0 and 1.5

SUMMARY

The following are the Microsoft Windows versions 3.0 and 3.1 API functions that are not wrapped by the Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) because they duplicate a language feature or a library routine. 

Windows 3.0 and 3.1 API             Equivalent Feature

DefDlgProc                          Default member function
DefFrameProc                        Default member function
DefMDIChildProc                     Default member function
DefWindowProc                       Default member function
EnumProps                           Member data in derived class (1)
GetClassInfo                        Member data in derived class
GetClassLong                        Member data in derived class
GetClassWord                        Member data in derived class
GetProp                             Member data in derived class (1)
GetWindowLong                       Member data in derived class
GetWindowWord                       Member data in derived class
RemoveProp                          Member data in derived class (1)
SetClassLong                        Member data in derived class
SetClassWord                        Member data in derived class
SetProp                             Member data in derived class (1)
SetWindowLong                       Member data in derived class
SetWindowWord                       Member data in derived class
(1) The property list mechanism is similar to member variables in that data is associated with an HWnd. However, member variables must be known at compile time, while a property list is maintained at run-time. A user can get similar functionality by using an MFC list object for this kind of member data.
