Are you posting it in the same DLL? IOW, is all of the above code in
the same DLL?

I'm trying to figure why code that look similar to this does not call
my message handler in my CWinApp derived class:

#define WM_MY_MSG (WM_USER + 200)

// header
class CMyApp : public CWinApp
{
public:
  ...
  void OnMessage(WPARAM,LPARAM);
  DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()

};

// cpp
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMyApp, CWinApp)
  ON_THREAD_MESSAGE(WM_MY_MSG,OnMessage)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

// exported function from regular mfc dll
#ifdef __cplusplus // If used by C++ code,
extern "C" { // we need to export the C interface
#endif

__declspec(dllexport) BOOL __cdecl ExportedFunction()
{
  AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetStaticModuleState());
  PostThreadMessage(AfxGetApp()->m_nThreadID, WM_MY_MSG, 0, 0);
  return TRUE;

}

#ifdef __cplusplus}

#endif

// user message handler
void CMyApp::OnMessage(WPARAM wParam,LPARAM lParam)
{
  AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetStaticModuleState());
  AfxMessageBox(_T("OnDestroyWindow()"));

}
