Calling a function from another Class [newbie question]

Schehaider_Aymen

Hello all, i know it's a newbie question but i couldn't find a replic or a sample code for such stuf. I have a CFormView Class and a CTest Class Derived CEdit Class. on both of them i have the OnKeyDown function, but what i want to do is to call the OnKeyDown fucnt of the deriver CEdit Class from the first one.. I declared a var with CTest var on the CFormView class and in the ONKeyDown (of the CFormView i did like this

void CMy01View::OnKeyDown(UINT nChar, UINT nRepCnt, UINT nFlags)
{
this->cd2.OnKeyDown(nChar, nRepCnt, nFlags);
}

and here the one of the CTest Class

void CTest::OnKeyDown(UINT nChar, UINT nRepCnt, UINT nFlags)
{

MessageBox("Blood 2");
CEdit::OnKeyDown(nChar, nRepCnt, nFlags);

}

All go right but when i run it nothing will happen ?? how could i fix it ?? Thnk you

Did you add ON_WM_KEYDOWN to your CEdit derived classes message map? Did you use DDX_Control to bind the edit control in the dialogue template to the instance of CTest in your Form View? I've just realised I didn't mention this when I suggested you implement a derived class of CEdit. Cheers, Ash PS: I know this is complicated, hang in there!

@ Garth: Sorry for deleting the message, i thought it was like in other forums when it's solved we may delete it to avoid the dump. @ Aescleal: I found a wasty manner to solve my prob (OnKeyDown related) which is

void CSdiView::OnKeyDown(UINT nChar, UINT nRepCnt, UINT nFlags)
{
// TODO: Add your message handler code here and/or call default

if((nChar<=0x30)&& (nChar>= 0x39))
	AfxMessageBox("Number");

CFormView::OnKeyDown(nChar, nRepCnt, nFlags);

}

BOOL CSdiView::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
// TODO: Add your specialized code here and/or call the base class

BOOL bHandleNow = false;
switch (pMsg->message)
{
case WM\_KEYDOWN:		
	switch (pMsg->wParam)
	{
	case 0x39:
	case 0x38:
	case 0x37:
	case 0x36:
	case 0x35:
	case 0x34:
	case 0x33:
	case 0x32:
	case 0x31:
	case 0x30:
		bHandleNow = TRUE;
		
		break;
	}

	if (bHandleNow)
		OnKeyDown(pMsg->wParam, LOWORD(pMsg->lParam), HIWORD(pMsg->lParam));
	
	break;
}
		return bHandleNow;

}

but i m only able to detected Numbers and Upper Cases Letters like A-Z and no a-z (another problem but at least i was able to detetect numbers an capital letters :rolleyes:
