Warning: Internal use only

Variables
constexpr size_t	MB_OK
	The message box contains one push button: OK. This is the default.

constexpr size_t	MB_OKCANCEL
	The message box contains two push buttons: OK and Cancel.

constexpr size_t	MB_ABORTRETRYIGNORE
	The message box contains three push buttons: Abort, Retry, and Ignore.

constexpr size_t	MB_YESNOCANCEL
	The message box contains three push buttons: Yes, No, and Cancel.

constexpr size_t	MB_YESNO
	The message box contains two push buttons: Yes and No.

constexpr size_t	MB_RETRYCANCEL
	The message box contains two push buttons: Retry and Cancel.

constexpr size_t	MB_ICONSTOP
	A stop-sign icon appears in the message box.

constexpr size_t	MB_ICONERROR
	A stop-sign icon appears in the message box.

constexpr size_t	MB_ICONHAND
	A stop-sign icon appears in the message box.

constexpr size_t	MB_ICONQUESTION
	A question-mark icon appears in the message box. The question-mark message icon is no longer recommended because it does not clearly represent a specific type of message and because the phrasing of a message as a question could apply to any message type. In addition, users can confuse the message symbol question mark with Help information. Therefore, do not use this question mark message symbol in your message boxes. The system continues to support its inclusion only for backward compatibility.

constexpr size_t	MB_ICONEXCLAMATION
	An exclamation-point icon appears in the message box.

constexpr size_t	MB_ICONWARNING
	An exclamation-point icon appears in the message box.

constexpr size_t	MB_ICONINFORMATION
	An icon consisting of a lowercase letter i in a circle appears in the message box.

constexpr size_t	MB_ICONASTERISK
	An icon consisting of a lowercase letter i in a circle appears in the message box.

constexpr size_t	MB_DEFBUTTON1
	The first button is the default button.

constexpr size_t	MB_DEFBUTTON2
	The second button is the default button.

constexpr size_t	MB_DEFBUTTON3
	The third button is the default button.

constexpr size_t	MB_DEFBUTTON4
	The fourth button is the default button.

constexpr size_t	MB_APPLMODAL
	The user must respond to the message box before continuing work in the window identified by the hWnd parameter. However, the user can move to the windows of other threads and work in those windows.

constexpr size_t	MB_SYSTEMMODAL
	Same as MB_APPLMODAL except that the message box has the WS_EX_TOPMOST style. Use system-modal message boxes to notify the user of serious, potentially damaging errors that require immediate attention (for example, running out of memory). This flag has no effect on the user's ability to interact with windows other than those associated with hWnd.

constexpr size_t	MB_TASKMODAL
	Same as MB_APPLMODAL except that all the top-level windows belonging to the current thread are disabled if the hWnd parameter is NULL. Use this flag when the calling application or library does not have a window handle available but still needs to prevent input to other windows in the calling thread without suspending other threads.

constexpr size_t	MB_HELP
	Adds a Help button to the message box. When the user clicks the Help button or presses F1, the system sends a WM_HELP message to the owner.

constexpr size_t	MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY
	Same as desktop of the interactive window station. For more information, see Window Stations.

constexpr size_t	MB_RIGHT
	The text is right-justified.

constexpr size_t	MB_RTLREADING
	Displays message and caption text using right-to-left reading order on Hebrew and Arabic systems.

constexpr size_t	MB_SETFOREGROUND
	The message box becomes the foreground window. Internally, the system calls the SetForegroundWindow function for the message box.

constexpr size_t	MB_TOPMOST
	The message box is created with the WS_EX_TOPMOST window style.

constexpr size_t	MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION
	The caller is a service notifying the user of an event. The function displays a message box on the current active desktop, even if there is no user logged on to the computer.
