Hi Patchou,

I'm trying to code a little plugin in C++ ...
I want to use the struc PLUGIN_PARAM in the ParseCommand function.

pParam is give in input parameter... but isn't it initialised ?

thanks

In ParseCommand, pParam is probably used for retrieving a conversation window (iConversationWnd). Is that what you need? Also, iConversationWnd may sometimes be a null pointer if Plus! can't pass it, for example, a Windows Messenger conversation window when WM is opened after MSNMsgr.

No... thanks for your anwser but I'm needing sContactName ...
It's not really important cause I can do what I want to do with another way... But why sContactName isn't initialised ?

sContactName is only used for ReceiveNotify. If you want to know who the user is talking to in the conversation window, you need to use iConversastionWnd

Ok ok
thanks


just an other question? how to distrib a plugin ?
Any public FTP where I can put it ?

You can announce your plugin here just in the Plug-Ins forum, and/or go to here: Official Plugin Database

anyone knows how patchou gets the iConversastionWnd without using the api? cause that's exactly what I need 2 know...

I think he searches the memory for it or something. I remember on IRC being told Patch gets the IMessenger3 pointer by searching the memory using ASM written by wtbw.

You have the best avatar picture I've never seen !!!!

Any good (clear) tutorial on Messenger API ?

Take a look at this attachment.

Oki!
Thank you!

Change DialogBox(hInst , (LPCTSTR)IDD_DIALOG1, hWnd, (DLGPROC)MyDlg);
to DialogBox(hInst , MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_DIALOG1), hWnd, (DLGPROC)MyDlg);

This works with VC++: not sure about others though. Also, make sure that you include the 'resource.h' file in all cpp files that deal with the dialog.

Hi,

thanks for your answer...

but it's the same thing... when i'm trying /xdialog, that's doing nothing at all

You clould also try using strcmp() instead of stricmp().

Basically, just try all sorts.

yes yes
but the problem isn't here...

the DialogBox fails... but don't know why

You may want to check the return value of DialogBox, and you may also like to look at GetLastError().

DialogBox is failed and return -1
GetLastError give the error number 1813
1813 The specified resource type cannot be found in the image file.  ERROR_RESOURCE_TYPE_NOT_FOUND.

I've created my dialog with the Visual Studio editor. Just a basic window without new control.
The wizard have created and insered resource.h automaticaly in the project.
In MPPluginC.h, I have add  #include "resource.h"

my .rc file:

quote:

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

IDD_DIALOG1 DIALOGEX 0, 0, 206, 134

hummm

All people here is coding in VB ? No one in C++ ?

Patchou!! please!! help me

Maybe TB could shed some light on this, as I've had this problem too.
Although I got round it by using VB

no. I can't do that I want to do with VB... (and I'm hating VB too...lol)
