Creates a window and a worker thread.
Syntax
virtual HRESULT PrepareWindow( );
Parameters
None.
Return Value
Returns NOERROR if successful; E_FAIL if unsuccessful.
Remarks
The base window class creates a window and a worker thread.
The worker thread is responsible for pulling messages from the window's input queue and dispatching them as appropriate.
The window and its thread are created by CBaseWindow::PrepareWindow and destroyed in CBaseWindow::DoneWithWindow.
The window should also be initialized and uninitialized through CBaseWindow::InitialiseWindow and CBaseWindow::UninitialiseWindow, respectively.
Having prepared a window and initialized it, the window can be sized using CBaseWindow::ActivateWindow and subsequently hidden using CBaseWindow::InactivateWindow.
