win32clipboard.ChangeClipboardChain

int = ChangeClipboardChain(hWndRemove, hWndNewNext )

The ChangeClipboardChain function removes a specified window from the chain of clipboard viewers.

Parameters

hWndRemove : int

Integer handle to the window to be removed from the chain. The handle must have been passed to the SetClipboardViewer function.

hWndNewNext : int

Integer handle to the window that follows the hWndRemove window in the clipboard viewer chain. (This is the handle returned by SetClipboardViewer, unless the sequence was changed in response to a WM_CHANGECBCHAIN message.)

Comments

The window identified by hWndNewNext replaces the hWndRemove window in the chain. The SetClipboardViewer function sends a WM_CHANGECBCHAIN message to the first window in the clipboard viewer chain.

Return Value

The return value indicates the result of passing the WM_CHANGECBCHAIN message to the windows in the clipboard viewer chain. Because a window in the chain typically returns FALSE when it processes WM_CHANGECBCHAIN, the return value from ChangeClipboardChain is typically FALSE. If there is only one window in the chain, the return value is typically TRUE.
