class WClass from WNT inherits TShared from MMgt

	---Purpose: This class defines a Windows NT window class.
	--          A window in Windows NT is always created based on a
	--          window class. The window class identifies the window
	--          procedure that processes messages to the window. Each
	--          window class has unique name ( character string ). More
	--          than one window can be created based on a single window
	--          class. For example, all button windows in Windows NT
	--          are created based on the same window class. The window
	--          class defines the window procedure and some other
	--          characteristics ( background, mouse cursor shape etc. )
	--          of the windows that are created based on that class.
	--          When we create a window, we define additional
	--          characteristics of the window that are unique to that
	--          window. So, we have to create and register window
	--          class before creation of any window. Of course, it's possible
	--          to create a new window class for each window inside
	--          the Window class and do not use the WClass at all.
	--          We implemented this class for sake of flexibility of
	--          event processing.
