旅途

WM_COPYDATA消息的主要目的是允许在进程间传递只读数据。Windows在通过WM_COPYDATA消息传递期间，不提供继承同步方式。SDK文档推荐用户使用SendMessage函数，接受方在数据拷贝完成前不返回，这样发送方就不可能删除和修改数据：
这个函数的原型及其要用到的结构如下:
SendMessage(hwnd,WM_COPYDATA,wParam,lParam);
其中,WM_COPYDATA对应的十六进制数为0x004A
wParam设置为包含数据的窗口的句柄。lParam指向一个COPYDATASTRUCT的结构：
typedef struct tagCOPYDATASTRUCT{
DWORD dwData;//用户定义数据
DWORD cbData;//数据大小
PVOID lpData;//指向数据的指针
}COPYDATASTRUCT;
该结构用来定义用户数据。
具体过程如下:

首先,在发送方,用FindWindow找到接受方的句柄,然后向接受方发送WM_COPYDATA消息.
接受方在DefWndProc事件中,来处理这条消息.由于中文编码是两个字节,所以传递中文时候字节长度要搞清楚.
体代码如下:
