  CPaintDC( CWnd* pWnd );
  throw( CResourceException );
 
  Parameter   Description
 
  <pWnd>      Points to the CWnd object to which the CPaintDC object
              belongs.
 
  Remarks
 
  Constructs a CPaintDC object, prepares the application window for
  painting, and stores the ◄PAINTSTRUCT► structure in the ◄m_ps► member
  variable.
 
  An exception (of type CResourceException) is thrown if the Windows
  ◄GetDC► call fails. A device context may not be available if Windows has
  already allocated all of its available device contexts. Your application
  competes for the five common display contexts available at any given
  time under Windows.
