I need to save out the QAT and command bar settings to our xml based customization file. I am creating an XML element in our file and obtaining the CXTPDOMNodePtr from the element, setting up a prop exchange object and call DoPropExchange. But when I am finished and I save the DOM data to a file, no command bar data appears. I have stepped thru the CJ code and I see calls that appear to be writing data. But where is the data?

I have been able to write out data when I don't pass in the xml node and later call px.SaveToFile but in this case I provide the node in our file so I can capture the data in our file (I need to write out multiple QATs and command bar settings for each MDI document type we support).

if (m_pElement)

{

CXTPDOMNodePtr pNode = m_pElement;

if( pNode )

{

CXTPPropExchangeXMLNode px( FALSE, pNode, _T("Settings") );

if( px.OnBeforeExchange() )

{

CXTPPropExchangeSection pxCommandBars( px.GetSection( _T("CommandBars") ) );

XTP_COMMANDBARS_PROPEXCHANGE_PARAM param;

param.bSerializeControls = TRUE;

param.bSaveOriginalControls = FALSE;

param.bSerializeOptions = TRUE;

pCommandBars->DoPropExchange( &pxCommandBars, &param );

}

What is wrong with the above code? OR what do I do to get the command bar data written to our file (along with other data we write in the file)?

Doh! I wasn't appending the element to my root node!

I made a call to save to a file (which I had written earlier) where I don't create the node for the constructor call (px variable) and for which I call px.SaveToFile with a temp file. Data was saved. I then quit concentrating on setting up and performing the prop exchange and realized I created an element but didn't do anything with it except use it for the prop exchange!.
