The MENUEX_TEMPLATE_HEADER structure defines the header for an extended menu template. The structure definition given here is for explanation only; it is not present in any standard header file.
// typedef struct
// WORD wVersion;
// WORD wOffset;
// DWORD dwHelpId;
// } MENUEX_TEMPLATE_HEADER;
Members
wVersion
Template version number. This member must be 1 for extended menu templates.
wOffset
Offset of the first MENUEX_TEMPLATE_ITEM structure, relative to the end of this structure member. If the first item definition immediately follows the dwHelpId member, this member should be 4.
dwHelpId
Help identifier of menu bar
Remarks
An extended menu template consists of a MENUEX_TEMPLATE_HEADER structure followed by one or more contiguous MENUEX_TEMPLATE_ITEM structures. The MENUEX_TEMPLATE_ITEM structures, which are variable in length, are aligned on doubleword boundaries. To create a menu from an extended menu template in memory, use the LoadMenuIndirect function.
