Visual C++ .NET add MFC class problem

[Signal-09]

Hello,

I have a problem in the Class Wizard for .net, which allows you to add a class based on a type.. the type is MFC, now when i input the correct information into the text fields, for choosing the name of the class, the derived class and the ID name, and i click finish it bring up a critical message box : "Object Required"

This is the first time this has happened, im not sure why.

Ive derived my class from CDialog, and i choose the correct ID resource i want it associated with.

If you need any more info please tell...

Thanks !

It could be simply that your resource file has errors. Compile it explicitly to check. Otherwize:

:confused: If I have a nagging development problem, the one you mention is it. My experience has been that eventually, as my programs grow, the class wizards that adjust both rc/idl/odl and cpp/h simultaneously break. All I see now is a dialog containing "Object Required". Once the I see that message it's game over.

I've tried to re-wire the mfc markers, clean up the headers, whatever. In some cases I even have the same code with working wizards on one machine but not another. Maybe ncb/opt contains the wiring?

Anyway, I've finally lowered my head and accept the fact that eventually the mfc com and resource wizards will break, and I won't be able to re-wire them.


:) I do have a workaround that might be helpful: Create a skeleton app that uses resources and idl from your main. For example, in the same solution make a new project called AppnameWiz with similar creation settings. Then reference the .rc and idl/odl from your main project. The wizard will work even when adjusting files from your main project.

Whenever I need to do major wizard tasks like creating a CDialog, CCmdTarget or COleControl i add them through AppnameWiz.

Hello,

I'm newly user of VC .NET, i'm developping an activeX control using VC.NET, when i added some properties to my activeX, and i tried it with VB, i noticed that when i changed the properties at design time, once i launched my VB Application the properties values are cleared.

What is the problem?, could you please help me?
