New Dialog in a saved .exe
-
While trying to add a new dialog (for login), after I build the dialog resource and compile the new class, I get errors saying that the IDD_DIALOG1 can't be found, even though it is in the .h file. This is where the error message points back to (the .h file). Anyone know why this is reacting the way it is. This is the first version of Visual C++ 6.0. Thanks. John P.

Check to make sure that the IDD_DIALOG1 has a unique definition in your resource.h file. If you decide to become a software engineer, you are signing up to have a 1/2" piece of silicon tell you exactly how stupid you really are for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week Zac

The IDD_DIALOG1 is unique. Also the ID_EMPID and ID_EMPPIN, for the two text iput boxes also generate errors. This .EXE file was created by a third party and supposedly we can add new items to this workspace/project. Is there any kind of control that the original maker can add in Visual C++ that inhibits or prevents new items from being added? Thanks for your input. John P.

So, if I understand you correctly, you have the source code for a third party application and are adding a new resource (and corresponding classes) to it? That being the case, then no, there is nothing they could do to make it so you cannot add a new resource. What error are you getting exactly?

For the IDD_DIALOG1, the compiler returns: error C2065: undeclared identifier error C2057: expected constant expression Even though the IDD_DIALOG1 is in the .h file as: //{{AFX_DATA (CloginDialog) enum { IDD_DIALOG1 }; CString m_empIDnum; CString m_empPIN; //}}AFX_DATA I also get errors saying that the two CString variables above are "undefined" This just doesn't make sense since Visual C++ made them part of the code. Thanks, Zac. John P.

Typically, the ClassWizard will inject the following when creating a new class:
//{{AFX_DATA (CloginDialog) enum { IDD = IDD_DIALOG1 }; CString m_empIDnum; CString m_empPIN; //}}AFX_DATAIs your class name lowercased like that? Usually you see "CLoginDialog". Chances are it is a typo along those lines somewhere.

have you add the #include "resource.h" in you application? in fact, these resource are defined in resource.h.

#include "resource.h" before the class declaration. MANISH RASTOGI

To all three of you who suggested that I add the resource.h file ---- THANKS. What can I say but DUH!! Sometimes it's too obvious?? Thanks again! John P.
