Hi,

I am using a modal dialog box to gather some inforamtion one the peices of info I need is
a filename so in myokhandler I invoke CFileDialog I get an exception when I do the the domdal

My question is can invoke a modal whtin a modal and if so what is the parent window

Thanks

of-course yes. You can invoke a modal dialog from another modal dialog. Coming to your problem there is something wrong with the usage of CFileDialog. can you paste the complete exception stack/message so that we can able find what went wrong.

I took this sample from here[^] hope you are doing the same. if not give a try.

CFileDialog dlgFile(...);
...
CString fileName;
dlgFile.GetOFN().lpstrFile = fileName.GetBuffer(<very large number&>);
dlgFile.GetOFN().nMaxFile = <very large number >;

INT_PTR nResult = dlgFile.DoModal();
fileName.ReleaseBuffer();

Read these lines carefully

The destruction of CFileDialog objects is handled automatically. It is not necessary to call CDialog::EndDialog.
To allow the user to select multiple files, set the OFN_ALLOWMULTISELECT flag before calling DoModal. You need to supply your own filename buffer to accommodate the returned list of multiple filenames. Do this by replacing m_ofn.lpstrFile with a pointer to a buffer you have allocated, after constructing the CFileDialog, but before calling DoModal.

When the user allocates their own buffer to accommodate OFN_ALLOWMULTISELECT, the buffer can't be larger than 2048 or else everything gets corrupted (2048 is the maximum size).

Additionally, you must set m_ofn.nMaxFile with the number of characters in the buffer pointed to by m_ofn.lpstrFile. If you set the maximum number of files to be selected to n, the necessary buffer size is n*(_MAX_PATH + 1) + 1.

Thanks for the suggestion however I am still getting an exception on the CFileDialog.Domodal

Here is the the code from the main window when a user selects Debug Program the following

ON_COMMAND handler is invoked

C++

Cprogdialog progdlg(this);              // consta prog dialog

  nRet = progdlg.DoModal();


                 return;
}

Then the follwing code is the on okay handler to this modal dialog box

C++

void Cprogdialog::Process()
{
	
		  UpdateData(TRUE); // read in data
          CFileDialog dlg(TRUE, _T("asm"), _T("*.asm"), NULL);
          dlg.m_ofn.lStructSize = sizeof(OPENFILENAME);
          dlg.m_ofn.lpstrFilter = (LPCTSTR)"*.asm,*.cbl,*.c";
          dlg.m_ofn.lpstrInitialDir = (LPCTSTR)"F:\\";
          dlg.m_ofn.lpstrTitle =  (LPCTSTR)"Program Source Code";
		  dlg.m_ofn.lpstrFile =  new char[50];  
		  dlg.SetParent(this);
             if (dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
                    AfxMessageBox((LPCTSTR)"Waiting for program " || (LPCTSTR)progname || (LPCTSTR)" In JobName " || (LPCTSTR)jobname,MB_OK);

The exception occurs at dlg.DoModal

Thanks again

There are many problems in your code.
The main problem that I see is the typecast to LPCTSTR.
I've said it before and I will say it again - Typecasting is evil.

Here is a sample code that you can use to correct your mistakes -

CFileDialog fOpenDlg(TRUE, L"txt", L"",
                       OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST|OFN_EXPLORER|OFN_HIDEREADONLY ,
                        L"All Image Files (*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.bmp;*.png)|*.jpg; *.jpeg; *.bmp ; *.png|Bitmap Files (*.bmp)|*.bmp|PNG Files (*.png)|*.png|JPEG Files (*.jpg;*.jpeg)|*.jpg; *.jpeg||", this);

fOpenDlg.DoModal();

You are using the _T() macro in some places to ensure your strings are correctly created as ASCII or Unicode. However, further down you are using the (LPCTSTR) cast. This means that your code should not even compile in Unicode mode. You also failed to tell us what the exception is that you are seeing.

Right after I try to step over the CFIleDialog.DOModal

a break is hit "int 3" the Call Stack points to somewhere in KerenelBase.dll

then doing a go PF5 results in a access exception

I red-did the code with L" instead of T("")

Thr CfileDailogBox I somewhat familar with its look appears not fully just the frame

right before "int 3" is hit

Thanks

So you think that randomly changing some strings to Unicode will fix the problem? My comment was made in the hope that you would actually think about what you are trying to do and whether your various parameters are correct. Read the documentation[^] and look more closely at the requirements for the different parameters on the CFIleDialog class.

You should also learn the difference between the _T() macro and the L prefix on strings. And finally you need to understand exactly what a cast, such as (LPCTSTR), does and how it affects the way your program runs.

C++
void Cprogdialog::Process()

So Process() is being called from OnOK()? Why are you wanting to browse for a file when the "main" dialog is being dismissed?

I do not see how this is going to work.

Okay i'll re-read the docs

I have a modal dialog box open to gather info

1 of the pieces of info is a file name so......

as soon as the user hits "OK"

I look for the last piece of info which a file thus the need to invoke CFileDiaog from the OKHANLDER of the first dialog box

you right I'll re-read the doc

When the user clicks the OK button, they are expecting to be done, not be presented with yet another dialog box. The OK button should not be available to click until all required information has been collected. It sounds like what you need is a Browse button to allow browsing for the file name.

I applogize

I have ON_COMMAND(IDC_PUSH,process)

In the message map

in the resource file I have DEFPUSHBUTTON IDC_PUSH

I haven't overriden CDialog::OnOk

I haven't defined a button with a ID of IDOK

maybe I should re-do the modal dialogbox as a modaal with DEFBUTTON of IDOK

since one the pieces of info i need is a file is omay in my OnOk overrride to invoke CFileDialog

to prompt the user for the file name?

Thanks

Hi,

I just got to work now but just before I left I re-built the code with only

CFileDialog dlg(TRUE);

one paramter as everybody was telling me I have problems wih my parms

as soon as I try stepping over dlg.Domodal();

I get a break point "int 3" some system DLL then entering PF5 "GO" again I get an access exception

I have a related question since I am creating the modal dialog box inside a modal dialog OKHANDLER what is the parent window the first modal or the MainWindow

Thanks

So why not take my advice, read the documentation, and fix the incorrect parameters? Unless and until you properly address the things that are obviously incorrect you are not going to make any progress finding the problem.

Does the Open dialog display, or is the exception thrown first?

SQL

The program takes the input of an initial key and an initial
vector, reads the plaintext or ciphertext from a file, conducts the encryption or
decryption, and writes the resulting ciphertext or plaintext into a second file.

SQL

test case is as follows: using a binary initialization vector of 10101010, a binary plaintext
of 00000001 00100011 encrypted with a binary key of 0111111101 should give a binary
ciphertext of 11110100 00001011. Decryption should work correspondingly.
