## Detailed Description

View to embed non CView views into VSTGUI.

This view is the umbrella for views from other view systems (like HWND child windows or NSViews). The actual implementation for the external view must be done via ExternalView::IView

## Member Typedef Documentation

using ExternalViewPtr = std::shared_ptr<ExternalView::IView>

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

CExternalView | ( | const CRect & | r,
|  | const ExternalViewPtr & | view
| ) |  |

~CExternalView | ( |  | ) |
| noexcept
