: How is this done in "original MS Windows"?

In the Win32 world, SendMessage to an hwnd not in
the current process space causes a task switch, with
the arguments copied to a local stack before switching.
The sending task then waits in an internal loop waiting
for the receiving task to return from the sendmessage
call.  All this happens only when the receiving task
happens to be sitting in GetMessage().

Regards,

Greg
