How to catch WM_GETMINMAXINFO with C# ???

[Max Favilli]

I have just installed visualstudio.net and I was curious to try C# and see
if it can be useful with my work. So I am really a novice. I usually develop
with C++ and VB.
No I can't find out who to override WM_GETMINMAXINFO to set the minimum size
of the window... Maybe I should use something else? I saw a mintracksize,
but didn't understand how it works.
The documentation does really suck.
Thanks,
Max

MinTrackSize should be what you're looking for. Put this in your Form:

protected override Size MinTrackSize
{
get { return new Size(400, 300); }
}

.... or even better, forget that override and just set the property to
what you want, for example in your constructor.

MinTrackSize = new Size(400, 300);

Half ot times I compile my very simple project it crash, is it common? Maybe
I should install it on win2000?
Where can I find a good documentation, or a good book, about all these
things work with c#?
Thanks,
Max
