The Arguments list for WinMain is:

int WINAPI WinMain(

    HINSTANCE hInstance, // handle to current instance
    HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, // handle to previous instance
    LPSTR lpCmdLine, // pointer to command line
    int nCmdShow  // show state of window
   );

As you can see there is a pointer to the command line, which is a null
terminated string. As for argc I think you need to parse the string yourself
in order to determine seperate options etc...

How to acsess parameters of a Windowsprogramm?

A console aplication with those lines in main() ...


       int main( int argc, char* argv[]){
           statements;
           return 0;
       }//main

... which gets started like:

       main_exe option1 option2 ... optionXY

... is able to acsess it's calling parameters.

How do I acess parameters provieded to my programm like the above under
windows?
Where do these parameters (argc argv[]) hide in WinMain( ... ) ?

THANX
