Hello,

I guess you can catch

ON_XTP_INITCOMMANDSPOPUP()

void CMainFrame::OnInitCommandsPopup(CXTPPopupBar* pCommandBar)
{

if ThisIsMyPopup(pCommandBar )
{

   pCommandBar->LoadMenu(&TempMenu,TRUE);

}

}

it will update menu before user popup it.

Hi Oleg,

Thats interesting, sowe shouldn't be storing m_pLayoutsPopupBar? 

How thenshould we be reloading the menu when we need to?  As explainedabove when the user wants to save a layout, we re-create the menu(with the new addition) and then load it into m_pLayoutsPopupBar. If we don't keep a pointer to m_pLayoutsPopupBar, how do we load ournew menu?

Also what do we do about freeing the memory used tocreate m_pLayoutsPopupBar?

Thanks for your help!

Hello,

It is very bad idea to store pointer m_pLayoutsPopupBar. - it will be corrupted if you Load previous state of commandbars or user made customization and delete some controls with this popup. (guess it is the reason that m_pControls is NULL)

Hi Oleg,

Thanks for replying tomy post, I've been trying to replicate this in a simple program orusing one of your sample applications but I've been having a bit of aproblem replicating it.

Basically what we are doing is using aLoadMenu() function on a CXTPPopupBar* pointer that was created asfollows:

m_pLayoutsPopupBar =CXTPPopupBar::CreatePopupBar(GetCommandBars());

We thendynamically re-populate m_pLayoutsPopupBar is the user has saved anew layout.  To repopulate m_pLayoutsPopupBar we create atemporary CMenu, and then call the following to load the newmenu:

m_pLayoutsPopupBar->LoadMenu(&TempMenu,TRUE);

Thisworks fine the first time through, but the next time through them_pControls member variable is invalid and the LoadMenu functioncauses a crash.

I have been able to avoid the crash using thefollowing code:

CXTPControls* pControls =m_pLayoutsPopupBar->GetControls();     if((pControls)        &&(AfxIsValidAddress(pControls            , sizeof(CXTPControls), FALSE)))

Butthat does not make my menu work.  What I'm having troubleunderstanding is how m_pControls, a private member variable, isgetting corrupted?

I will keep trying to replicate it in asample app, and if I am successful I will send you that. Hopefully in the mean time the above explanation will give you someideas as to what the problem maybe.

Also, we are using VisualStudio 6.0, MFC, and version 9.80 of your library.

Hello,

We need sample application from you to see what you try to do.

Hi Everyone,

I'm getting a crashin our program when we run CXTPCommandBar::LoadMenu.  Theproblem appears to be caused by the m_pControls, which is set to NULLat that time.

The LoadMenu function is being called because weare adding additional items (at runtime) to our CXTPPopupBar. Does anyone know what the problem might be? 

I've alsonoticed that there was a similar postabout this here on the forums, does anyone know what the resultof that was?
