Oleg - this kind of thing needs to be documented. Given that the commandbar setup persists over the lifetime of the frame window storing a pointer is not completely unreasonable. perhaps a bit devil may care but not entirely stupid. :-)]]> Wed, 25 Jun 2008 18:55:36 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11205&PID=37418&title=cxtpcontrolcombobox-in-commandbar-issue#37418 <![CDATA[CXTPControlComboBox in commandbar issue : Hi, Its quite dangerous to...]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11205&PID=37411&title=cxtpcontrolcombobox-in-commandbar-issue#37411 Author: Oleg

Hi,
 
Its quite dangerous to save pointer to combobox this way - after you load state it will be not valid, or your user can remove it from toolbar.

I've got 2 problems - any pointers appreciated.

Background:

In my CXTPFrameWnd derived frame class I create a command bar with an embedded CXTPControlComboBox. This displays itself properly and can be accessed in the ON_XTP_EXECUTE() handler embedded in my view class. I store the pointer to the combo box in the frame class. Call it m_pAddress.

1. I set up an accelerator to set focus to the combo box - in the event handler if I call m_pAddress->SetFocused(TRUE) then I get a fault

2. In my OnClose handler in the frame class I want to read and store the combo contents. Again if I call m_pAddress->GetCount() I get an exception. The debugger shows my that the pointer to the commandbar instance is garbage.

Question: Is the pointer returned by CXTPToolbar->GetControls()->Add() a temporary ?

Also WTH is the Post New Topic editor so bloody small?????

THx.
