I want to open a document from the MFC dll.
I am using the below function.
AfxGetApp()->OpenDocumentFile(szlstfile.GetBuffer(0)); ;
It is giving the assert message
But its neither opening the File main application .
szlstfile is the CString object holding the path of filename.
Anybody has idea how to open a Document from any MFC dll .

This assert just says that the thread, where you called the function OpenDoc..., has no main wnd.
Is this a multi threaded app or is this your main thread?

This call is not from MainThread.

Thats exactly your problem. The easiest way to solve this problem is, that you only
call gui functions from within your thread that created the gui.
In general calling gui functions from within a thread that didn't created the gui is not
a good practice and often causes such problems.
The are ways to do this, but its too long ago, that I developed C++. Maybe somebody
can you explain how to do such calls.

Which one of that exactly are you having trouble with?

What about writing one, as you are supposed to do ?

Here ya go:

I one of my sample applcaiton,I hav changed the combobox in to Listbox,
After that i got in piece of code.
CAlarmCombo *pSysBox = (CAlarmCombo *)((CMainFrame *)AfxGetMainWnd())->m_SysWnd.GetDlgItem(IDC_SYSALARM);
if(pSysBox)
{
pSysBox->EnableWindow(TRUE);
if( pSysBox->GetCount() < 5 )
pSysBox->AddString((LPCTSTR)RGB(255,0,0));
}
The code is working fine with CComboBox.
The error comes in that bolded line as some USER32.dll unhandled exception.

What is the string you're trying to add?
RGB(255, 0, 0) is not a valid string.
pSysBox->AddString(_T("RED")); would be the correct way to do this.
|
|
|
|
|
You are trying to type cast RGB(255, 0, 0) to a string. This casting is wrong. What are you trying to display on the list?

Actually it displaying kind of test like
BT001 BTcomments LL
Like this it will print in the COmboBOx.
What i did is..I want ListBox,so replaced the combobox with ListBox,and i use the ID of Combobox in to Listbox.
But with the ComBoBOx it works fine.
The string gets added in function
void CAlarmCombo::DrawItem(LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT lpDIS)
{
.
.
.
CString sAlrm = _T("");
sAlrm.Format("%-16s %-25s %-4s",pTagBase->GetTagName(),pTagBase->GetDescription(),pAlrmDisp->sStatus);
pDC->TextOut(25,lpDIS->rcItem.top + 1,sAlrm)
}
Even i couldnot understand what that AddString() doing.
But how it works perfect in using COmboBox.

In the expression
pSysBox->AddString((LPCTSTR)RGB(255,0,0));
You're casting to a const TCHAR * a temporary DWORD value, that plainly makes no sense...

The RGB[^] macro returns a COLORREF[^]. You're forcing the compiler away from complaining about this by cleverly casting the COLORREF value to an LPCTSTR. 
If you want to add the string as it is, then try
pSysBox->AddString(_T("RGB(255,0,0)"));

What a mess!

Do you know what an RGB value is? Hint: it can't be converted to a LPCTSTR by casting it.

What do you mean by a Virtual Desktop?
You can create another desktop using CreateDesktop[^].
