HWnd Message Hook in WinForms?

Question

What is the WinForms equivalent to the following line of WPF code?

HwndSource.FromHwnd(_windowHandle).AddHook(HwndSourceHookHandler);

Answer 1

In WinForms, you'd typically override WndProc in the control/Form in question. Since every control is effectively a HWND, you don't need the HwndSource style of hooking.
