[gme-users] Adding a menu item that invokes a class...

[Kevin Smyth]

Hi Andrew,

 

I'm not quite sure what you've done here or what the problem is, but
perhaps you'd be better off creating a self-contained example of the
problem and asking an MFC listserv (do they still have traffic?).

... which (should) invoke a dialog box.


Things I've done/checked so far:

Created a simple Dialog box with a few controls (edit, text, etc) and
saved it to the resource folder in GME/GME.rc/Dialog

I added an auto-gen'd event handler which created a new class (Class.cpp
for the purposes of this example)   Note: the Class::Class(CWnd
*pParent) : CDialogEx(Class::IDD, pParent) constructor is empty, I'm not
sure if that's relevant but I don't think it is..

There's a MESSAGE_MAP COMMAND(menu_item_id, &class::member_function())
invocation within the Class.cpp was auto-generated. It's wrapped in the
standard BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP macro stuff.

However: when the menu item is clicked, the item remains gray. The
properties for "enabled=true" and "gray=false" are both properly
configured. So, I assume this is error is due to  the message handler
isnt registered


I'm lost! any help would be appreciated, again.

Thanks
-A
