Hi, I created an HWND to get messages from the OS for a socket class(WSA
style) I am writing. Because a member function used as a WindProc has to be
static, I wish to set the classes memory pointer to the cbClsExtra member in
my WNDCLASSEX struct using SetClassLong...

problem is that I keep getting errors when compiling it... "Cannot cast from
MSocket to long"...

FWindowHandle =
CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW,"MSocket",NULL,WS_POPUP,0,0,0,0,0,0,HInstanc
e,NULL);

SetClassLong(FWindowHandle,0,(long)*this);  // gives me an error

I am doing all of this so that when I get messages(which can be for any of
the MSocket classes) I want to know if the message is for "THIS" object and
not another, because of the static WindProc. Is this the way to do it or is
there a better solution?

long _stdcall MSocket::MWindProc(HWND Wnd,UINT Msg,WPARAM WParam, LPARAM
LParam)
{
  long TempMSocketClassPointer = GetClassLongr(Wnd,0);
  if((long) TempMSocketClassPointer != (long)&FWindowHandle) // E2031 Cannot
cast from void * MSocket::* to long
    return DefWindowProc(Wnd,Msg,WParam,LParam);
  else
 {
  // handle message, its for us (note: finish this last )
    switch(Msg)
    {
      default:
          break;
    }
  }
}

the 'if' line gives me the same error as above.

Any ideas on how I can accomplish this?

Thanks,  Lynn.
