	ShowWindow(hwnd, SW_SHOW);
	UpdateWindow(hwnd);

	//确保函数不会直接退出，

			if (msg.message == WM_QUIT) {
    
    
				break;
			}
			//转换我的消息为应用程序消息
			TranslateMessage(&msg);
			//把该消息派发出去，派发到回调函数LRESULT CALLBACK GLWindowProc(HWND hwnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
			DispatchMessage(&msg);

		}

		//draw sence
