WM_MENU_CELSIUS is not a standard message. It's a user message. You have to define it.
For example, in your header file moteDataDlg.h, add the following:
#define WM_MENU_CELSIUS (WM_USER + 100)
for more information on WM_USER, check its entry in MSDN.
All the best!

That really should be WM_APP not WM_USER. I've had instances where WM_USER has been used by some of the newer MFC classes. I don't remember off-hand which one it was but I had a problem in one of my apps that was do to something else also using WM_USER. When I changed my define to WM_APP the problem went away.

thank you. that's good to know. I read wm_app again, and noticed it's said as follows:
"Message numbers in the second range (WM_USER through 0x7FFF) can be defined and used by an application to send messages within a private window class. These values cannot be used to define messages that are meaningful throughout an application, because some predefined window classes already define values in this range. For example, predefined control classes such as BUTTON, EDIT, LISTBOX, and COMBOBOX may use these values. Messages in this range should not be sent to other applications unless the applications have been designed to exchange messages and to attach the same meaning to the message numbers.

Still having problems. I know this should be simple, however, this is the second day I have been working on this problem and I still cannot seem to solve the problem.
Thank you for your help or I would not have gotten this far.
Thanks to Judy also.
void CMotionAnalyzerDlg::OnTemperatureCelsius()
{
//m_dPointer[0]->SendMessage(WM_MENU_CELSIUS,0,0);
SendMessage(m_dPointer[0]->m_hWnd, WM_MENU_CELSIUS);
}
In the function OnTemperatureCelsius() of the main dialog, if I use the statement SendMessage(m_dPointer[0]->m_hWnd, WM_MENU_CELSIUS);
I get error C2664: CWnd::SendMessageA: cannot convert parameter 1 from HWND to UINT. m_dPointer[0] refers to the embedded dialog (moteDataDlg).
I tried an alternate statement that I saw when searching for an answer. If I use the statement m_dPointer[0]->SendMessage(WM_MENU_CELSIUS,0,0), my application compiles but do not run.
Also, I am using the WindowProc correctly in my embedded dialog (moteDataDlg), I use LRESULT for the return value, initially, I used void. In the header file I declared:
protected: LRESULT WindowProc(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);
LRESULT MoteDataDlg::WindowProc(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
if (message==WM_MENU_CELSIUS)
{
celsiusFlag = !celsiusFlag;
AfxBeginThread(MyThreadProc, this);
}
return 0;
}

It looks ok to me. Time to break out the debugger. Put a breakpoint on your SendMessage and follow the execution to see where it doesn't work.

ON_COMMAND(ID_TEMPERATURE_CELSIUS, OnTemperatureCelsius)
WM_MENU_CELSIUS()
END_MESSAGE_MAP()
First, remove WM_MENU_CELSIUS from the MessageMap - you're handling it yourself from the WindowProc.
Next, WM_MENU_CELSIUS a user-defined windows message. You need to define it.
#define WM_MENU_CELSIUS WM_APP
Lastly, I would change your SendMessage to PostMesasge. The difference is whether you wait for the message to be processed.

Hi have written an addin for the Outlook 2003. All in-coming mails are proparelly backup in the .Msg file at particular location on the disk. The objective of the saving the file in the .MSG format is that on double clicking on the .Msg file it will open in the MS Outlook, or even if we do drag and drop it will open in MS Outlook. The basic thing i want to do is to set passward to .Msg file for opening in MS Outlook. It should either ask for user name and password or any other strategy of authetication. Once it passes this user name and password it should open in MS Outlook, Help me...

Hi guys, I'm new in VS2005 and I can't find the Memory Window that I could open with "View->debug Windows->Memory" in VS6.
Where can I find that window ?
Thanks a lot

In "Debug" -> "Windows" -> "Memory" (only when you are debugging)

Hi all,
This might be a stupid question(s) but here goes:
Does a registered dll stay in memory?
And does a dll that doesn't need registered stay in memory?
Thanx in advance.

Naively, all kind of DLLs (registered and unregistered ones) are loaded in memory by the OS loader when a process needs to get linked with.
Standard DLLs (such as User32.dll) don't need registration, registration is required only by COM DLLs.
Hope that helps.
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

CPallini, yes it does help, thank you very much. But the other thing is after the function call will the dll still reside in memory? (Registered and those who don't need registration)
Thanx for your reply.

Which function call ?
In fact, you have two ways to load your dll. Either explicitely (by using LoadLibrary) or implicitely (you link to a library provided with the dll that contains information about how to load the dll's).
In the first case, the Dll is loaded when you call LoadLibrary and is released when you call FreeLibrary (if there is no other application that uses it). Or it is released when your application exits.
In the second case, the dll is loaded when your application is started an is released when your application terminates.

Registration of a DLL has nothing to do with when the DLL is loaded into the address space of the process that uses the DLL. Registration of a DLL is only needed if the DLL exposes a function called DllRegisterServer which usually is only applicable for COM DLLs.

Oh YES, of course...
The OS loader may discard the DLL if the process detaches from. For an ordinary DLL, if the process implicitely links with (e.g. you have used the DLL's *.lib as input for the LINKER; this is the most common way...) the detaching happens on process termination; on the other hand, if the process explicitely links with (via LoadLibrary call), then the process can, at any time, discard the library by means of the corrensponding FreeLibrary call.
COM uses a completely different approach, a component DLL may be discarded by the COM when the component it's no more needed, i.e. when the reference count of the component reaches 0 (see life cycle of COM components in MSDN, however, basically, calling Release() on a COM pointer, allows COM to discard the related DLL).
Hope that helps

Now tell me an MFCxx.dll is a COM dll or a standard DLL?
Press: 1500 to 2,200 messages in just 6 days? How's that possible sir?

none. you have to provide it with your application binary, or place it in the path...

Hello comunity,
i try to save a struct variables to a map!
Simple struct with some CStrings as member!
Which one(Map) to use for that: CMapStringToOb, CMapStringToPtr, CMapWordToPtr?
regards
break;
|
|
|
|
|
in the context of MFC, I would use CMapStringToPtr or CMapWordToPtr depending on the key.
but I strongly suggest you start using STL and std::map.
