CXTPRibbonBar tab

I wasn’t able to find a wait to receive a tab change notification from the ribbon bar. So, I modified the XTP library as following. Please make these changes or implement a way to determine when a tab is changing and changed.

Add the following to XTPRibbonBar.h

protected:

      virtual BOOL OnBeforeTabChange(CXTPRibbonTab*) { return TRUE; }

      virtual void OnTabChanged(CXTPRibbonTab*) {}

Change SetCurSel in XTPRibbonBar.cpp

void CXTPRibbonBar::SetCurSel(int nIndex)

{

      CXTPTabManagerItem* pItem = m_pControlTab->GetItem(nIndex);

      if( pItem != NULL )

      {

             if( !OnBeforeTabChange( (CXTPRibbonTab*)pItem ) ) return;

             m_pControlTab->SetCurSel(nIndex);

             OnTabChanged( (CXTPRibbonTab*)pItem );

      }

}

Add the following to XTPRibbonControlTab.h

protected:

      BOOL OnBeforeItemClick(CXTPTabManagerItem* pItem);

      void OnItemClick(CXTPTabManagerItem* pItem);

Add the following to XTPRibbonControlTab.cpp

BOOL CXTPRibbonControlTab::OnBeforeItemClick(CXTPTabManagerItem* pItem)

{

      if( !GetRibbonBar()->OnBeforeTabChange( (CXTPRibbonTab*)pItem ) )

             return FALSE;

      return CXTPTabManager::OnBeforeItemClick(pItem);

}

void CXTPRibbonControlTab::OnItemClick(CXTPTabManagerItem* pItem)

{

      CXTPTabManager::OnItemClick(pItem);

      GetRibbonBar()->OnTabChanged( (CXTPRibbonTab*)pItem );

}

What would be nice is to implement both methods, that way inheritors and owners can handle the notification. But, I was in a hurry and didn’t have the time to do it. Hopefully the XTP team will implement this.
