RTTI problem
-
Hi experts, I have an activex control that is placed on a dialog. At runtime I have the nIDs of all the controls so, by using function GetDlgItem I am able to get the pointer to that activex control as CWnd*. So, My question is how can I get that activex class name or how can i identify whether the pointer is of activex class or not. I have already used typeid, CRuntimeClass, and dynamic_cast but unable to get the required result. Please help me in resolving it.

I can't see why GetRuntimeClass wouldn't work for ordinary controls and dynamic_cast to IUnknown wouldn't work for Ax Controls. Just be prepared to handle the exceptions when you try the wrong one. I have no idea why you'd want to do this anyway, don't you know which controls are ActiveX control already, having put them on the dialog :confused:

Hi, Have you tried
CObject::IsKindOf? Regards, Paresh.
