The messages are generated when notify=true is passed when these maximize(),
minimize() [etc] are called.  When its done by the user, you just get
SEL_CONFIGURE messages.  

Note that if you need to find out minimized, maximized state, you can call
the isMaximized() and isMinimized() API's.  They should give the correct
answer even if maximization was done by the user rather than programmatically.


Hope this helps,
