I made a little test program with three menu items: The Option, Post It and Send It. The Option just displays a message box. Post It and Send It posts or sends a WM_COMMAND with IDC_THE_OPTION as wParam to the AfxGetMainWnd() window. I have overriden the view OnCmdMsg and the framewnd OnCmdMsg (it's a SDI app) and put traces in if IDC_THE_OPTION (or any of the other two menu items) passes through.
I get what I'd expect: Everything goes through first CFrameWnd::OnCmdMsg and the CView::OnCmdMsg. So there must be something else "wrong" with your app.

I appreciated your helped me on this question. I used an MDI app and overriden the CMainFrame's OnCommand. To test if the command message is routed to this function I used an IF statement to see the command ID.
I am wondering if you could make a test MDI program on this point, zipped it and sent it to me via email to convince me?
Thank you so much!

I tried to mail the MDI program to you but your mailer won't allow a 5 meg zip attach.
Anyway, the result is that invoking the command through a menu selection or through SendMessage/PostMessage yield identical call patterns. CMainFrame::OnCommand is called, followed by CChildFrame::OnCommand, which calls CChildFrame::OnCmdMsg and CView::OnCmdMsg. CMainFrame::OnCmdMsg is not called because CChildFrame::OnCmdMsg handles the command (returns TRUE) and thereby shortcuts CMainFrame::OnCommand.
One thing that may confuse you is that ON_COMMAND_UI handling is routed through some of the same pathway, namely CMainFrame::OnCmdMsg, CChildFrame::OnCmdMsg and finally CView::OnCmdMsg. Here only the menu selection invocation will cause this chain to be called, as SendMessage/PostMessage does not relate to the UI and hence does not provoke UI updating. So if you just checked whether CMainFrame::OnCmdMsg was called at all you'd see a difference between menu selection and Send-/PostMessage, but that's not for the WM_COMMAND message, thats for MFC's private UI update mechanisms (illustrated by the fact that OnCommand is not called in response to UI updates).
This is the best I can do. If you are absolutely sure that WM_COMMAND send by a menu and send by Send-/PostMessage leads to different call stacks I suggest you write a minimum program to reproduce the problem and send it to me or to this forum (oops! I just recommended posting code, sorry!!!)
Cheers
Steen.

Hi,
I want to pass metafile to my ATl control ( from an MFC client), is there any easy way to do that, something pretty cool would be like:
MyAtlCtrlInstace->PassMetafile(hMyMetafile) ( VT_METAFILE)
But it seems that I have to use IOleDataObject ( but I don´t want drag and drop and that stuff just directly call it from the client!!!!), is there any easy way to do that ?, if not... which method should I override from IOleDataObjectImpl ?
Thanks in avance, Bye !

Sorry to disappoint you that I don't know the answer but I can help you in another way,because it seems you are really in trouble;) (2 or 3 message about this problem in disccution board)
Anyway,Have you read Dr.Grimes books about ATL programming?(wrox publisher)There are two version ,one for Begginers and another one is for prof. I have the begginer version but there is nothing useful about this subject in it,maybe if you find prof. one it can help you.
I also have Dr.Grimes email address,one time he helped me to solve my problem in ATL ,if you want I can send it for you,I think he helps you

Hi,
Anyway thanks for your help ( yes I feel like a dummy sorry , just posting posting..., aaaah !).
Sometimes to do something wiht ATL looks like weird or complicated but.... well... just give a metafile !!! oh my god !... I think I´m going bananas
If you can give me the address of Dr. Grimes I will send one e-mail, but I don´t know if he will answer me...
Thanks anyway, Bye !

If you ask how should I write my project,he won't answer.Ask your question as you ask them here,"SHORT" and "COMPLETE",he answers the questions that thier answers are one or two line,just like this question
Good luck

I'm having some problems with inheritance and virtual functions. Supose the following classes:
class CMyClass
{
virtual void DoSomething() = 0;
}
class CMyDialog : public CDialog, public CMyClass
{
void Init()
{
m_oUsingClass.Init(this);
}
virtual void DoSomething()
{
}
CUsingClass m_oUsingClass;
}
class CUsingClass
{
void Init(CWnd *pWnd)
{
m_pWnd = pWnd;
m_pMyClass = (CMyClass *)pWnd; // error - it doesn't work
m_pMyClass->DoSomething(); // error - caused by prior error
}
CWnd *m_pWnd;
CMyClass *m_pMyClass;
}
When I assign "m_pMyClass = (CMyClass *)pWnd;" it doesn't work. So I can't call virtual function DoSomething() defined in CMyDialog class.
How can I do this?
What I need is to have a class (CMyDialog) that is derived from CDialog and CMyClass and in another class (CUsingClass) I need to access CDialog and CMyClass (passed by "this" parameter in m_oUsingClass.Init(this)). Can I do it simply passing this as CWnd * or I need to have two parameters in CUsingClass::Init(CWnd *, CMyClass *) and I have to pass "this" parameter twice in CMyDialog (m_oUsingClass.Init(this, this))?
If you have any idea about how can I do this, or if you know where can I get documentation explaining why this doesn't work, I would appreciate.
Thanks
Vanessa

Try this:
m_pMyClass = dynamic_cast<CMyClass *>(pWnd);

IMHO, the *real* problem you have here is trying to use a "CMyClass" polymorphically as a CWnd. Why? This does not make a lot of sense. A CWnd is *not* a CMyClass. Trying to cast your way out of that situation is not a good idea. Are there going to be other types of CWnd's muliply inherited from CMyClass? If so, are some of them not CDialogs? For example, do you plan on passing in a CView that also inherits from CMyClass? If that is your goal, than I would seriously suggest you reconsider your design.
If not, than I would suggest getting rid of the attempt at polymorphism based upon CWnd. If you have a set of dialogs that need this polymorphic behavior than you should base your polymorphic behavior on that class.
i.e.
Init( CMyDialog* pmydlg )
{
pmydlg->DoSomething();
}
Since a CMyDialog *is* a CMyClass this is straight forward...
I think you are going to get yourself into a lot of trouble trying to do things the way you are.

I have created an MDI application with appwizard.
In MyProgram.cpp in initinstance I register the applications
document templates. I want to open the document from a menu item.
The problem is that the document is opened everytime I execute
the program. How can I avoid this?
|
|
|
|

To create a new doc/view at a later time save the doc template pointer in your applications header file:
CMultiDocTemplate *m_pMyDocTemplate; Use it when the doc template is created:
m_pMyDocTemplate = new CMultiDocTemplate(
IDR_TARGETTYPE,
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMyDoc),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CChildFrame),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMyView));
AddDocTemplate(m_pMyDocTemplate);When you are ready to create a new doc/view call this:
m_pMyDocTemplate->OpenDocumentFile(NULL, TRUE); If you call AddDocTemplate() above you do not have to delete the m_pMyDocTemplate pointer when the application ends. If you don't call AddDocTemplate() you will need to delete the m_pMyDocTemplate pointer.
To keep the default new doc/view from showing add the code below:
CCommandLineInfo cmdInfo;
ParseCommandLine(cmdInfo);
if(cmdInfo.m_nShellCommand == CCommandLineInfo::FileNew)
cmdInfo.m_nShellCommand = CCommandLineInfo::FileNothing;
if (!ProcessShellCommand(cmdInfo))
return FALSE;Hope this helps.

Arrgghhh!!!! Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or let me know that I'm not lossing my mind?

Any ideas folks?

A guess as to the cause is that an inlcude file before crtdbg.h has ab incorrect ending or a problem in it such as a non-closed comment. I qould check your stdafx.h file to see what is included before crtdbg.h and check out those files.
On an different note. I used to get a periodic problem like this on one of my projects. I could get it to go away by doing a rebuild all.

Thanks for that Roger. I've checked the #include's and the stdafx, and can't find anything wrong. I have got round it by doing a clean rebuild all - the only problem here is that it takes about 15 mins to build the four projects in the workspace, which means I'm going for fag breaks too often!

the next time it happens try this...
comment out this block of code
#ifdef _DEBUG
#define new DEBUG_NEW
#undef THIS_FILE
static char THIS_FILE[] = __FILE__;
#endif
at the beginning of whatever implementation file that you just changed. Then do a build. Then uncomment it and do it again.
Weird, huh?  Isn't Microsoft grand?

hello,
i made a class with all sorts of functions...
but i actually need to use it as an independant object (compiled) so i can give it to people and that they dont have the source. How can i easily do this?? For example make it a DLL or an Active-X component.. or perhaps something else i haven't heard of yet?? Or is there no easy way out and do i have to rewrite the entire thing so it can be compiled as a DLL??
Any help is appreciated
P.S.: yes, it probably was rather dumb to write it as a class when i needed it to be a DLL or something, lol...

Make it into a COM object. COM does exactly what you want. Buy "Developers workshop to COM and ATL 3.0", by Andrew Troelson. it's a mighty good book.

You can also make it a static library (.lib) file, and give it away along with the header files. Please note this will only work in VC++. Also, you would need to release several versions depending on the C run-time library linked against: multithreaded/single-threaded, debug/release, static/dynamic. Fortunately, building this bunch of versions is as simple as having different subprojects with the appropriate C run-time settings.

With the MFC class CEdit it is possible to receive notification messages for EN_UPDATE (for when the control is about to display altered text) and EN_CHANGE (for when the control has finished the display of altered text).
Can anyone tell me how I can get notification to my dialog when the user is simply moving the cursor caret around inside the edit control and the text is not changing?
I am using a single line version of the CEdit control.
Your help would be greatly appreciated. If you need further information about what I am doing or in order to answer my question please leave a reply post here and I will answer back.
Thanks

You'd have to handle a variety of messages. WM_CHAR for characters; i believe this message is sent even if it's only a system key like a cursor key being pressed. Also, you'd want some mouse button messages... WM_LBUTTONDOWN or UP , for example. Because the user can reposition the cursor with a mouse click.
