CDialog DoModal function [Moved]
-
Hello, can i use a DoModal function without actually making the dialog in the resources. Pritha

If you mean by creating your dialog template in memory, then you can do it after intialising with the CDialog::InitModalIndirect()[^] method.

Not that I am aware of; check the documentation page(s) that I posted in my previous answer.

hello, thankyou for replying. there seems no difference in calling the InitModalIndirect() but when I changed the version of my project I getting debug just before when the dialog opens and the same dialog was fine in the Visul studio 6.0. Pritha

Sorry, but I am not sure what you mean by this, or what it has to do with your original question. Do you have a problem that you cannot resolve, and if so what is the code that is failing?

thanks for replies I made a class derived from CDialog with memery allocations for DLGTEMPLATE structure.Basically doing what was required to do for making a dialog without resources and was working fine with Visual Studio 6.But the sames classes, objects r not working with Visual Studio 2005 though I m not getting any compile time error. So I read through the documetation of any differnece for making the dialogs but it was not helpful. Any suggestions

What does "not working" mean, it explains nothing; try and be more specific about the results you expect and what you see. Are you sure that all your dialog items are correctly aligned to
WORDorDWORDboundaries, as required?Just say 'NO' to evaluated arguments for diadic functions! Ash

thanks I will check with that. But not working means I am getting Debug Assertion failure for DoModal() function. Can u please clear Are you sure that all your dialog items are correctly aligned to WORD or DWORD boundaries, as required? Pritha

Well that should give you a clue; look at the details of the assertion and try to figure out why it is getting thrown, and which parameter in your dialog may be causing the problem.

I mean, check the positioning of all your dialog items in memory to ensure that they are correctly aligned, before you call
DoModal(); for further information see here[^].Just say 'NO' to evaluated arguments for diadic functions! Ash

So does this solve the problem?

No but then I got a few guidelines towards the solutions. can i paste my code hear .It is about memory allocation and then calling InitModalIndirect Pritha

Sure, if you think it will be useful for others.
