The WM_SHOWWINDOW message is sent to a window when the window is about to be hidden or shown.

Does it happens with all the Windows or with any specefic Window ?
Are you trying to hide any window which you have created or any other applciaiton's Window ?

This is a classic example of Encapsulation in C++.

Same tt you!

call_vec is a array of pointer to functions which pass void and return int.
PUBLIC _PROTOTYPE should be some typedef.

It was easy, you will learn all these very soon.

You know for me it is very true. "There is always Room for Improvement :)"

Two reasons::
