The following sample code shows how to add a new object of class WPFolder to the Desktop container:

#define INCL_WINWORKPLACE
#include "os2.h"

PSZ      pszObjTitle = "Sample Object";
HOBJECT  hobj;

{
  hobj = WinCreateObject("WPFolder",
                         pszObjTitle,
                         "OBJECTID=<WP_SAMPLE>",
                         <WP_DESKTOP>,
                         CO_FAILIFEXISTS);

  if (hobj != NULLHANDLE)
  {
    /* Object was successfully created on the Desktop */
  }
  else
  {
    /* WinCreateObject failed */
   }
}
