DoModal in DropFiles Error ?!
-
Stephen was asking for some code of your own. So, use the call stack to find in which function it crashes (or you can also use your debugger, which is very very helpfull).
int RetVal; int nFiles = DragQueryFile(hDrop, -1, szDroppedFile, 2048); for(int i=0;i-1) // if x>-1 a duplicate filename already exists { CFileReplace md; md.ReturnValue=&RetVal; md.DoModal(); // Depending on RetVal value either replace the file or skip ... } ...If I comment out the 3 lines regarding the CFileReplace function and assign a value to RetVal the function works fine, it's only by calling DoModal that the error occurs. -
Hi, I've coded a dialog based app that allows you to drop files into a listbox. Once the drop has taken place I've written some code to check if the files dropped are already listed in the lisbox - and if so a dialog box shows asking the user if they want to replace their existing files (pretty much like windows explorer). My problem is, everything works fine until the end of the DropFiles function is reached..when it returns the program crashes from the following Assert:
ASSERT(::IsWindow(m_hWnd));Anyone know how to fix this? :confused: Thanks in advance. -
int RetVal; int nFiles = DragQueryFile(hDrop, -1, szDroppedFile, 2048); for(int i=0;i-1) // if x>-1 a duplicate filename already exists { CFileReplace md; md.ReturnValue=&RetVal; md.DoModal(); // Depending on RetVal value either replace the file or skip ... } ...If I comment out the 3 lines regarding the CFileReplace function and assign a value to RetVal the function works fine, it's only by calling DoModal that the error occurs.What does the
CFileReplacedialog do when it is being dismissed?

That's all that's in
CFileReplace::OnOK()? IsCFileReplace::ReturnValuea pointer? Where does it get assigned a new value?

At this moment it isn't returning a value because of the current problem, it's still a plain dialog box with an OnOK() to close.

Ok, so what happens in
CFileReplace::OnInitDialog()?

Nothing. At the moment CFileReplace is an empty default dialog with and OK and Cancel button. There are no custom functions in place yet because I need to get around the initial error.

Based on that, can we then assume that it has no bearing on the problem? Also, answering this question will go a long way towards the solution.

I may have found a solution but can anyone tell me if it could cause a problem? Changing the code in
PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)stopped the error from occuring: Original Code: (Not Working)if( pMsg->message == WM_DROPFILES) OnDropFiles(pMsg->wParam,pMsg->lParam); return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);Modified Code: (Working)if( pMsg->message == WM_DROPFILES) { OnDropFiles(pMsg->wParam,pMsg->lParam); ::TranslateMessage(pMsg); ::DispatchMessage(pMsg); return TRUE; } else return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);As I said, this does make the function work correctly, but is it a solution or is it just diverting from the error? -

What's this? Why are you looking for this message in the
PreTranslateMessage()method? You should be handling theWM_DROPFILESmessage via the message map:BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMyDlg, CDialog)
//{{AFX_MSG_MAP(CMyDlg)
ON_MESSAGE(WM_DROPFILES, OnDropFiles)
//}}AFX_MSG_MAP
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

Dialog based applications can't seem to handle drop files that way. Nothing is ever added to the list when items are dropped. The only way I've found to enable drag and drop in a dialog based app is intercept the message in
PreTranslateMessage()
