Hi,

When I resize the window (resize with mouse at right bottom of the program window), the window will flickering.

Anyone can tell me what's wrong with my code?

Thanks
:)

running that app gives me a GPF.

But I know how to solve the problem.
There are two ways - 1) set the window's hBrush to be 0 (at class-registering time).
2) process WM_ERASEBKGND , returning 0 or 1 immediately.
You can combine them both :)
When the window gets resized, it all (or only the new parts) gets invalidated (marked as 'dirty'). Then windows sends a WM_ERASEBKGND message to this window, and the DefWindowProc() gets the background brush, that is usually grey or white, and paints all the window in white/grey. Immeditely after that, the window gets a WM_PAINT message, and that before the window gets painted, the user sees that ugly void window for a fraction of the second, and this is ugly :).
