终于懂了：WM_PAINT中应该用BeginPaint与EndPaint这两个api，它们的功能正是使无效区域恢复（所以WM_PAINT里即使什么都不做，也必须写上BeginPaint与EndPaint）——Delphi里WM_PAINT消息的三个走向都做到了这一点 good

程序本来是想实现鼠标单击改变背景颜色。可是，程序运行时，为什么没有任何消息触发，背景颜色就一直不断的改变了？WM_PAINT怎么被触发的

#include <windows.h>
#include <stdlib.h> 

LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc (HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM) ;

  hdc=GetDC(hwnd);
  FillRect (hdc, &r, hBrush) ;
  ReleaseDC (hwnd, hdc) ;
  DeleteObject (hBrush) ;
  return ;

    case WM_SIZE:
         GetClientRect(hwnd,&r);
         return ;

 case WM_LBUTTONDOWN:
  InvalidateRect(hwnd,&r,true);
  return ;

case WM_DESTROY:
  PostQuitMessage () ;

回答：这个基础，看一下《windows程序设计》第三章吧

wm_paint是有无效区域的时候产生的消息，所以应首先恢复该区域，才不会一直循环下去

wm_paint中应该用beginpaint与endpaint这两个api，参数是PaintStruct类型，它们的功能正是使无效区域恢复
而不是getDC与releaseDC

invalidaterect也有使区域无效的功能，可用它手动触发wm_paint事件重绘

对比Delphi代码：

procedure TWinControl.WMPaint(var Message: TWMPaint);
var
  DC, MemDC: HDC;
  MemBitmap, OldBitmap: HBITMAP;
  PS: TPaintStruct;
begin
  if not FDoubleBuffered or (Message.DC <> ) then // 消息里已经自带DC，用这个绘制就可以了
  begin
    if not (csCustomPaint in ControlState) and (ControlCount = ) then // 针对Windows自带控件，其包含的子控件数量为0，且没有自绘标记。
      inherited // 走向1，主要是针对Windows系统原生控件，微软定义的基本控件，总不会有错，应该内含BeginPaint了吧？
    else
      PaintHandler(Message); // 走向2，主要是针对Delphi的自绘控件，内含BeginPaint
  end
  else
  begin
    DC := GetDC(); // 走向3，消息里没有自带DC，那么就现取，内含BeginPaint
    MemBitmap := CreateCompatibleBitmap(DC, ClientRect.Right, ClientRect.Bottom);
    ReleaseDC(, DC);
    MemDC := CreateCompatibleDC();
    OldBitmap := SelectObject(MemDC, MemBitmap);
    try
      DC := BeginPaint(Handle, PS);
      Perform(WM_ERASEBKGND, MemDC, MemDC);
      Message.DC := MemDC;
      WMPaint(Message);
      Message.DC := ;
      BitBlt(DC, , , ClientRect.Right, ClientRect.Bottom, MemDC, , , SRCCOPY);
      EndPaint(Handle, PS);
    finally
      SelectObject(MemDC, OldBitmap);
      DeleteDC(MemDC);
      DeleteObject(MemBitmap);
    end;
  end;
end;
 
procedure TWinControl.PaintHandler(var Message: TWMPaint);
var
  I, Clip, SaveIndex: Integer;
  DC: HDC;
  PS: TPaintStruct;
begin
  DC := Message.DC;
  if DC =  then DC := BeginPaint(Handle, PS);
  try
    if FControls = nil then PaintWindow(DC) else
    begin
      SaveIndex := SaveDC(DC);
      Clip := SimpleRegion;
      for I :=  to FControls.Count -  do
        with TControl(FControls[I]) do
          if (Visible or (csDesigning in ComponentState) and
            not (csNoDesignVisible in ControlStyle)) and
            (csOpaque in ControlStyle) then
          begin
            Clip := ExcludeClipRect(DC, Left, Top, Left + Width, Top + Height);
            if Clip = NullRegion then Break;
          end;
      if Clip <> NullRegion then PaintWindow(DC);
      RestoreDC(DC, SaveIndex);
    end;
    PaintControls(DC, nil);
  finally
    if Message.DC =  then EndPaint(Handle, PS);
  end;
end;

就是说，TWinControl无论是否双缓冲，都会调用BeginPaint和EndPaint函数，来消除自绘。整个Controls.pas单元也只有这两处调用BeginPaint。

另外，我没有找到TWinControl的DoubleBuffered被初始化的过程，说明编译器自动把它初始化成了False
