How can you dynamically remove menu items from your main menu in the XTreme Toolkit Pro?

I use to do something like this:

void CMainFrame::OnUpdateMenuItem(CCmdUI* pCmdUI)
{

pCmdUI->m_pMenu->RemoveMenu(pCmdUI->m_nID, MF_BYCOMMAND)

}

But now using the CommandBars it crashes because m_pMenu = NULL

Help!

Hello,

You can do this (modify menu items dynamically) by handling the WM_XTP_INITCOMMANDSPOPUP message, for example:

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMainFrame, CMDIFrameWnd)
      //{{AFX_MSG_MAP(CMainFrame)
      ON_WM_CREATE()
      //}}AFX_MSG_MAP
      ON_XTP_INITCOMMANDSPOPUP()
      ON_XTP_CREATECONTROL()
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

void CMainFrame::OnInitCommandsPopup(CXTPCommandBar* pCommandBar)
{
    // get the list of commands for the popup.
    CXTPControls* pCommandList = pCommandBar->GetControls();

    // Remove "New" menu item from the File menu.
    CXTPControl* pCommandNew = pCommandList->FindControl(
        xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_NEW, TRUE, FALSE);
    if (pCommandNew)
    {
        pCommandList->Remove(pCommandNew);
    }

    // Rename menu item "Save" to "Save Document".
    CXTPControl* pCommandSave = pCommandList->FindControl(
        xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_SAVE, TRUE, FALSE);
    if (pCommandSave)
    {
        pCommandSave->SetCaption("&Save Document");
    }

    // Rename menu item "Print..." to "Print Document...".
    CXTPControl* pCommandPrint = pCommandList->FindControl(
        xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_PRINT, TRUE, FALSE);
    if (pCommandPrint)
    {
        pCommandPrint->SetCaption("&Print Document...");
    }
}
