How to get C++ MFC Control HANDLE by it's id?

Question

I have for example IDC_EDIT1 C++ MFC Controls , How Can I get its handle ? By which Windows API , Can I done it ?

Answer 1

CWnd-derived objects have a GetSafeHwnd member function to retrieve the Windows handle of that object, so if your control is in a dialog you can retrieve the handle like this:

HWND hwnd = GetDlgItem(IDC_EDIT1).GetSafeHwnd();
