Creates a window and a worker thread.
Syntax
virtual HRESULT PrepareWindow( ); |
Parameters
None.
Return Value

Remarks
The base window class creates a window and a worker thread.
The worker thread is responsible for pulling messages from the window's input queue and dispatching them as appropriate.
The window and its thread are created by CBaseWindow::PrepareWindowand destroyed in CBaseWindow::DoneWithWindow.
The window should also be initialized and uninitialized through CBaseWindow::InitialiseWindowand CBaseWindow::UninitialiseWindow, respectively.
Having prepared a window and initialized it, the window can be sized using CBaseWindow::ActivateWindowand subsequently hidden using CBaseWindow::InactivateWindow.
