You do. See docs for lpszMenuName field. GUI projects generated by Visual Studio include resource generation, that's why it works for them. Thanks!

(again, I pretty much copied the code directly from MSDN)

Windows Resources
I'm trying to create a win32 window. I coped the code pretty much
directly from msdn:
MSG msg;
BOOL bRet;
WNDCLASS wc;
// Register the window class for the main window.
if (!hPrevInstance)
{
wc.style = 0;
wc.lpfnWndProc = cast(WNDPROC)&WndProc;
wc.cbClsExtra = 0;
wc.cbWndExtra = 0;
wc.hInstance = hInstance;
//wc.hIcon = LoadIcon(cast(HINSTANCE) NULL,
IDI_APPLICATION);
//wc.hCursor = LoadCursor(cast(HINSTANCE) NULL,
IDC_ARROW);
wc.hIcon = NULL;
wc.hCursor = NULL;
wc.hbrBackground = GetStockObject(WHITE_BRUSH);
wc.lpszMenuName = "MainMenu";
wc.lpszClassName = "MainWndClass";
if (!RegisterClass(&wc))
return FALSE;
}
// Create the main window.
hwndMain = CreateWindow("MainWndClass", "Sample",
WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT,
CW_USEDEFAULT,
CW_USEDEFAULT, cast(HWND) NULL,
cast(HMENU)
NULL, hInstance, cast(LPVOID) NULL);
if (!hwndMain)
{
auto x = GetLastError();
return FALSE;
}
x is 1812 = ERROR_RESOURCE_DATA_NOT_FOUND
That's about as far as I can get. (what resource data? Where I do
put it? How, who, when?)
