Not sure exactly - it's not something I've needed to do, but perhaps rather than AppWizard functionality you could you use a Developer Studio Add-in.

The link below is a new article, it's slightly different to what you want but it might get you going with Add-ins.

Hi all,

I've created my own custome appwizard, the wizard produces a COM dll.i've placed all the template files propely.
now when i use the wizard, all the files are being generated.
when i compile my new created project, it compiles it as if it was an exe project and not a dll project.....

can any1 help me? what do i need to change in the project-->settings so it would become a COM dll project and would compile as one...?

thanks in advanced,
Yaron

in VC6 make sure that in the InitCustomAppWiz() method in the <yourProject>Aw.cpp file that the correct project type is specified. If a DLL is not being built you may need to change PROJTYPE_CON (or similar) to PROJTYPE_DLL.

m_Dictionary[_T("PROJTYPE_DLL")] = _T("1");

This is one of those annoying little problems that I have trouble with every time I have to write a custom AppWizard, hope I've helped Smile | :)

Have a look at the WM_CTLCOLOR message. You'll have to handle it in your dialog class and return a brush to draw the background of the edit control with.

You can also use WM_CTLCOLOR to change the background of the dialog - have a look at the docs as I can't remember exactly how to. Smile | :)

To change the title bar colour, have a look at one of the (many) articles here on CP about drawing custom title bars, as it's too involved to put here.

You need to handle CTLCOLOR messages. I have a CColourEdit box class I wrote a while back. I can email it to you tomorrow if you want [I'm not in work now].

It has all the SetBkColour(), SetTxtBkColour(), SetTxtColour() methods and a few more. If your interested let me know [drop me an email - click the email button at the bottom of this post] and I'll email it on to you.

Adding view(s) to the view list of a document

pdunn21-Jun-03 18:59

I need help with adding a view(s) to the document view list.
I know that CDocument::AddView() will add the view to the view list. The CView::OnCreate() is suppose to call the AddView(), but I don't have an OnCreate, I have Create() in my SecondView class. My FirstView does get adding to the view list. There is a difference in my second view (SecondView) than in my first view (FirstView). FirstView uses a PreCreateWindow(cs) method and my SecondView uses a Create(...) method. In the PreCreateWindow(cs) method, CListView::PreCreateWindow(cs) is called. In my Create method the first few lines of code is

if (!CWnd::Create(lpszClassName, lpszWindowName, dwStyle | WS_CLIPCHILDREN,
rect, pParentWnd, nID, pContext))
{
return FALSE;
}

it does not call the base class CFormView::Create(...), I have tried that and got an error.

In my CWinApp derived class I have the method
LoadFrames(){
m_pSecondView->OpenDocumentFile(NULL);
m_pFirstView->OpenDocumentFile(NULL);
}

m_pSecondView and m_pFirstView are CMultiDocTemplate* type.

When I use the following in another method in my CWinApp derived class
pos = m_pSecondView->GetFirstDocPosition();
pDoc = m_pSeconView->GetNextDoc(pos);
pDoc will equal the correct class (CMyDoc)

However, in my CMyDoc file

pos = pDoc->GetFirstViewPosition();
CView* prog;
while(pos != NULL)
{
prog = pDoc->GetNextView(pos);
if(prog->IsKindOf(RUNTIME_CLASS(CSecondView)))
((CSecondView*)prog)->Method(m_nVar);
}

The only view prog ever get populated with is CFirstView.
Also in my CWinApp derived class, I use the line
CDocument* pDoc = pChild->GetActiveDocument();
and found out (when pChild = CSecondFrame [see next paragraph]) pDoc will be set to NULL 0x000000.

If it is important I have defined the CMultiDocTemplate pointers as such
m_pFirstView = new CMultiDocTemplate(IDR_FIRSTTYPE,
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMyDoc),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CChildFrame),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CFirstView));
AddDocTemplate(m_pFirstView);

m_pSecondView = new CMultiDocTemplate(IDR_SECONDTYPE,
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMYDoc),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CSecondFrame),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CSecondView));
AddDocTemplate(m_pSecondView);

as you will notice, two different frames and IDRs are used. I don't believe that should make a difference in regards to the CMyDoc class, but I am writing all that could be revelant.

The information that I need is, how do I get my SecondView associated in the view list of my MyDoc class.

Thank you for any help.

how can i do?

i am making a project, and i have to program the appearance for a code test software.
i like to make the appearance like virtual c++ 6.0.
i think vc++6.0 must be a MDI document. And its mainframe must have a CSplitterWnd member. And the CSplitterWnd member's pane maybe a class derived from CChildFrame.
is it right?
and how can i make the appearance like VC++6.0?

VC++ Standard ED final .exe program?

Using Visual C++, I was trying to create the final .exe stand alone file of my C++ program but I don't see how to do it. I see where it says to "build" a release version, but where do I obtain the .exe to distribute? I tried to save, but ti only saved the compile text file.

Thanks, Dave

In the Build toolbar (assuming you have it turned on) there's a combo box that says "win32 debug". Change that to "Win32 release" and build.
(This is for VC6; I assume there's a similar toolbar in 7)

I did build the program in the release mode, but where does the final .exe application end up? I looked under "my Projects" but nothing is there. How do I save the final program so I can give the program to someone else? Does VC++ allow you to create a stand alone program?

Thanks, Dave

In your project folder, there will be a folder called "Release". In that folder will be the .exe the compiler created. If you don't know where your project folder is, you'll have to find it.
