  Remarks
 
  If you use the constructor with no arguments, you must initialize the
  resulting CPen object with CreatePen, CreatePenIndirect, or
  CreateStockObject. If you use the constructor that takes arguments, then
  no further initialization is necessary. The constructor with arguments
  can throw an exception if errors are encountered, while the constructor
  with no arguments will always succeed.
