Currently evaluating the DockingPane classes.

I am testing the CXPTFrameWnd + CXTPDockingPaneManager into our existing application.
I have the following child frame:
   class CStagedChildFrm : public CXTPFrameWnd
This had 2 views which were in 2 splitter panes
   class CStagedGridView

I want to convert the 2 views to 2 docking pane views:

LRESULT CStagedChildFrm::OnDockingPaneNotify(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
    if (wParam == XTP_DPN_SHOWWINDOW)
    {
        CXTPDockingPane* pPane = (CXTPDockingPane*)lParam;

        if (!pPane->IsValid())
        {
            switch (pPane->GetID())
            {
            case IDR_PANE_PROPERTIES: // 1st view...

              I have a view already created and want the pane to draw it.

                 pPane->Attach (pProperties); // this does not work.


     // pProperties is a new view I created like this in OncreateClient.
     //    pProperties = dynamic_cast <CStagedGridView*> (CreateView (pContext));
     //class CStagedChildFrm : public CXTPFrameWnd

This fails to work since I am new to this (2hrs ago); so I am sure there is a proper way to do this.
If anyone knows let me know.

Hi,

There is AttachView method that creates View and Attach it:

pPane->AttachView(this, RUNTIME_CLASS(CViewOne))

Please start evaluating with our samples. They have all you need :)
