  Runtime class information for a custom dialog box class that covers the alert window's client area.

• [in] params

Remarks

Call this method to create an alert window. The client area of the alert window contains a child dialog box that hosts all controls that are displayed to the user.

The first method overload creates an alert window that contains a child dialog box that is loaded from the application's resources. The first method overload can also specify runtime class information for a custom dialog box class.

The second method overload creates an alert window that contains default controls. You can specify which controls to display by modifying the CMFCDesktopAlertWndInfo Class.
