Hooked MDIChild window ---> problem - C / C++ / MFC Discussion Boards

Hi:
which is the easiest way to insert a little image (maybe a BMP 30x30 pixels) in specific coordinates (x, y) into a view?
Thanks.

In the OnDraw handler of the view class, first create a HBITMAP struct. Then use LoadImage to load the bitmap image from a file into the struct. Then create a CBitmap object and attach it to the HBITMAP. Then use standard BitBlt techniques to blit the bitmap into the view.

Here's a code sample:

void CMyView::OnDraw(CDC* pDC)
{
   HBITMAP hbmpMyBitmap;
   hbmpMyBitmap = (HBITMAP) LoadImage( NULL, "C:\\Windows\\MyBitmap.bmp", 
                                       IMAGE_BITMAP, 0, 0, 
                                       LR_LOADFROMFILE );<DIV>

   CBitmap objBitmap;
   objBitmap.Attach( hbmpMyBitmap );<DIV>

   CDC tempDC;
   tempDC.CreateCompatibleDC( pDC );
   CBitmap* pOldBitmap = (CBitmap*) tempDC.SelectObject( &objBitmap );<DIV>

   pDC->BitBlt(x, y, width, height, &tempDC, 0, 0, SRCCOPY);<DIV>

   tempDC.SelectObject( pOldBitmap );
   
   return;
}

Something like this. Remember to replace file path, destination coordinates and bitmap width and height with the correct values.

Hope it helps,

I am creating a dialogbox(modal) from inside my parent dialog. On this dialog, there is a Finish button whose id = IDC_BUTTON6. When I click this button I would like to call my parent dialog's apply(); method.
However I don't know how to refer to IDC_BUTTON6 of Popup.cpp from inside the Parent.class.
Should I write something like;

if (nResponse == IDC_BUTTON6) which is erroneous,

or like

if (nResponse == Popup.IDC_BUTTON6) which is also erroneous.

How should I solve this simple case ?

Parent.cpp has the following ;

void SomeMethod()
{
myPopupDialog dlg(propertySheet->hRepository, propertySheet->pszObjectDN, &csName);

int nResponse = dlg.DoModal();

if (nResponse == IDC_BUTTON6)// where the error occurs
{
apply();
}

}
void apply(void)
{
//do something
}

*********************

Popup.cpp has the followind code;

void ColdGroupPopup::OnFinish() //Finish button's id = IDC_BUTTON6
{

}

Nice Özgürce

Hooked MDIChild window ---> problem

Ro_land1-Feb-05 3:15

Hi !

I managed to hook a MDIChild window to a class of mine, which is derived from the class CHookWnd , supplied by J.P.Naughter (see article http://www.naughter.com/hookwnd.html)

I additionally do attach a Toolbar programmatically to the hooked MDIChild window, all works fine, meaning that 1)the toolbar is created and attached, 2) the messages are rerouted to my WindowProc.

There is one problem , though:
I am not able to intercept the WM_COMMAND message sent, whenever I click on one of the toolbar buttons, this message is sent directly to the child and not rerouted. I also DO NOT want to induce a redirection of the message from within the MDI child window, that would be pointless in my case.

QUESTION : How can I intercept the WM_COMMAND messages issued upon clicking the toolbar buttons such, that they will be redirected automatically to my WindowProc procedure.

The whole project is available upon request,

thanks to anyone trying to help,

Rubi

The problem is due to the way MFC routes the messages in the OnCmdMsg() function.

BOOL CFrameWnd::OnCmdMsg(UINT nID, int nCode, void* pExtra,
	AFX_CMDHANDLERINFO* pHandlerInfo)
{
	CPushRoutingFrame push(this);

	// pump through current view FIRST
	CView* pView = GetActiveView();
	if (pView != NULL && pView->OnCmdMsg(nID, nCode, pExtra, pHandlerInfo))
		return TRUE;

	// then pump through frame
	if (CWnd::OnCmdMsg(nID, nCode, pExtra, pHandlerInfo))
		return TRUE;

	// last but not least, pump through app
	CWinApp* pApp = AfxGetApp();
	if (pApp != NULL && pApp->OnCmdMsg(nID, nCode, pExtra, pHandlerInfo))
		return TRUE;

	return FALSE;
}

If you override this function in your mainframe you can add an extra stage to query the CMdiChild window.

e.g.

BOOL CMainFrame::OnCmdMsg(UINT nID, int nCode, void* pExtra,
	AFX_CMDHANDLERINFO* pHandlerInfo)
{
	CPushRoutingFrame push(this);

	// pump through current view FIRST
	CView* pView = GetActiveView();
	if (pView != NULL)
	{
		CWnd *pParent = pView->GetParent();
		if (pParent != NULL && pParent->OnCmdMdg(nID, nCode, pExtra, pHandlerInfo))
			return TRUE;
	}
	if (pView != NULL && pView->OnCmdMsg(nID, nCode, pExtra, pHandlerInfo))
		return TRUE;

	// then pump through frame
	if (CWnd::OnCmdMsg(nID, nCode, pExtra, pHandlerInfo))
		return TRUE;

	// last but not least, pump through app
	CWinApp* pApp = AfxGetApp();
	if (pApp != NULL && pApp->OnCmdMsg(nID, nCode, pExtra, pHandlerInfo))
		return TRUE;

	return FALSE;
}

Thanks , but I should have explained better. What I needed to achieve was a way to cause my DLL to plug into an existing application by some other programmer, without having to involve the the other programmer .This way , he wouldn't have to change a bit. There would be only his application with a few MDI child windows created by him, while I hook up to those MDI child windows, I induce the creation of different toolbars for the respective MDI child and intercept all the messages to those windows, thus taking over the MDI children. I achieved it, everything works fine now. As I explained in the former posting, I do receive the rerouted messages. The WM_COMMAND message cannot be intercepted by me, it is intercepted in the MDI child, but I found a way around it. Whenever I create the toolbar, I keep record of the amount of buttons and record the rectangles within the toolbar, where they are located. Now, I need just to catch the WM_LBUTTONDOWN and ..BUTTONUP messages, thus enabling me to detect which button was pressed and take action... Works great !

Thank you for your interest !

hi all

does ne1 know the best way of extracting a sting

what i need to do i extract str1 out of str2

CString str1 = "7"
CSting str2 = "07HGN"

so the result for str2 would be "0HGN"

any ideas

thanks

The common logic is:

int nPos = str2.Find(str1);
int nDelLen = str1.GetLength();
if(nPos != -1)
str2.Delete(nPos,nDelLen);

This is a simple method. u can also use extraction method using Left, Right, Mid functions and concatenate the extract the string.

Caveats when using SetParent ?

I have a CDialog (as child of something else) that I need to reparent to another window ( a CWnd child of a floating/non-floating evil dialogbar ).

Are there any caveats when reparenting CWnd in general ?

( I know it's very vague, but I'm looking for generics before going deeper into the problem )

Thanks.

if you want to get the Icon from some other window and use that in your window program you can use ExtractIcon api

here is small code listing for that

HICON m_hRemoteIcon;
CString m_strFileName;
<font color=#008000>//Assume m_strFileName point to valid Program file//Now use the Extract Icon api to Extract the Icon
//First Parameter =NULL( indicateuse the curent instance)
//Second Parameter = Name of file from which you want to extract icon
//Third Parameter : Index of icon ,here i am extracting the
// first icon from the exefile
</font>

m_hRemoteIcon=ExtractIcon(NULL,m_strFileName,0);
<font color=#008000>//here  m_statIcon is static ctrl of type ICON </font>
m_statIcon.SetIcon(m_hRemoteIcon);
