Is it safe to post a message to a handle of 0? The WinAPI help that
comes with D7 says the a handle of NULL posts to the current thread as
if it was a PostThreadMessage.
I know nothing in my program will respond to the custom messages and
would rather not do this every time if it's not necessary.
if HMicWin <> 0 then
PostMessage(HMicWin, MyCustomMessage...
HMicWin is a function that calls FindWindow.
If the program I'm posting these messages to (also mine) is not running
HMicWin will be 0.
Can I safely do this?
PostMessage(HMicWin, MyCustomMessage...
knowing that HMicWin may sometimes be 0.
