I want to display a dialog box

I'm proceding like that... but it's not the good method

quote:

---

LRESULT CALLBACK MyDlg(HWND hDlg, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
   switch (message)
   {
        case WM_INITDIALOG:
           return TRUE;
        case WM_COMMAND:
            if (LOWORD(wParam) == IDOK || LOWORD(wParam) == IDCANCEL)
            {
                EndDialog(hDlg, LOWORD(wParam));
                return TRUE;
            }
         break;
    }
    return FALSE;
}
....
....
....
...
if(stricmp(sCommand, "/xdialog") == 0)
{       
   HWND hWnd=GetActiveWindow();
   HINSTANCE hInst = (HINSTANCE)GetModuleHandle(NULL);         
   DialogBox(hInst , (LPCTSTR)IDD_DIALOG1, hWnd, (DLGPROC)MyDlg);
   return TRUE;
}

Could you help me please ?


       

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:

---

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Dialog
//

IDD_DIALOG1 DIALOGEX 0, 0, 206, 134
STYLE DS_SETFONT | DS_MODALFRAME | DS_FIXEDSYS | WS_POPUP | WS_CAPTION |

    DEFPUSHBUTTON   "OK",IDOK,149,7,50,14
    PUSHBUTTON      "Annuler",IDCANCEL,149,24,50,14
END

I'm not undrstanding why this error?

When I tried getting DialogBox to work, I kept getting that. Never did find out why though.

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
