Title: CicMarshalWndClass ???
Post by: Zen on July 18, 2006, 04:40:03 PM
Whilst creating me hooks program i came across this class while listening to the WM_CREATE messages. Is this something that belongs to windows or is it another class that belongs to Aurora? Also, what does it do? As i cant seem to find it with WinSpy.

Different GUI libraries create their own window classes. If it belongs to Aurora's IDE (as it doesn't belong to Aurora programs I can tell you that much), it's probably an MFC name which is hidden behind things like CWnd.

It's an internal windows COM object.  Used by the shell for nVidia drivers if I remember correctly.

Perhaps it was ATI then.  A lot goes on in the system when a window is created.

It looks like its for IE windows.
Its mentioned here in the windows that have to be generated to make a browser window:

Needless to say it's part of the OS ;)
