Customizing CFileDialog... 

Mihir Dalal -- m_dalal@ECE.concordia.CA
Saturday, January 04, 1997



                    Environment: MSVC 1.52, Windows 95

Hi,

I have derived a CMyFileDialog from CFileDialog to customize its 
behaviour. I could manage playing around with almost every control of the 
CFileDialog except for the "Network" push button. 

A view of the resource from commdlg.dll shows that this push button is 
created at run time on the fly and is not a part of the standard resources 
of the "Open File" dialog box. 

How do I suppress it ?? I believe, some data member of the CFileDialog 
has to be set to FALSE to suppress it. I tried with all the network 
related members of the "OPENFILENAME" structure but with no success. 

Any help is appreciated.

Mihir.

Tim,

In the MSVC 1.52 version I get OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON as an "undeclared 
identifier".

It makes sense, since I don't see that flag even in the help documenation 
for the "OPENFILENAME" structure in my version. 

I believe, the problem now reduces to being environment specific.
For those of you on MSVC 1.52 platform, any answer to this problem ??

Environment: MSVC 1.52, Windows 95

You could possibly try a HACK by doing the GetWindow Function until you run
across the "Network" caption , then use the EnableWindow function

That was basically my suggestion to Mihir, but unfortunately older header
files (in his case, notice the "MSVC 1.52") don't have that flag.  However,
it's a DLL that will be interpreting the flag, and if the DLL doesn't
support the flag, I think it's safe to say that it will be ignored.  So the
most straightforward solution I can think of is use the solution we both
suggested, but add the following to the code (like in a local header or the
source module in question):

#ifndef OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON
#define OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON 0x00020000
#endif

Of course, I suppose you could always just go hand-patch COMMDLG.H.

The above is untested, but would probably take less time to try out than it
took me to write this.

Tim Robinson, 
Rail J. Rogut,
Mao Zhihong,       
Rosco Schock,    
DeVincci,     
&
David Elliot,

Kuddos gentlemen !! I have finally succeeded in customizing my 
CMyFileDialog and I DID GET RID of the Network button finally.

Thanks to you all for your responses. The answer lies in defining 
OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON in the local header and then setting
m_ofn.Flags = OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON | .....
 
While working on this code, I noticed a strange behaviour from MSVC which 
I wish to point out. Please explain me if anybody has explanation to 
this. 

I believe, the m_ofn members are set usually in the class constructor 
(the way I have set them in my implementation below). When I tried to set 
m_ofn.Flags = OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON, I compiled without errors & I ran the 
program without errors too, but guess what ??

I lost all the customizations, I had done in the OnInitialUpdate() of my 
derived class. As you can see in the implementation below, I was creating 
a "Delete" push button "on the fly" in the OnInitialUpdate. I lost that, I 
lost the disabling of some list boxes, and some other list boxes, for 
which I had even disabled the visibility now appeared back on the visual 
interface. 

Although, the customizations done in the class constructor (like setting 
the caption to "File Open\Delete") were retained. 

Upset with this, I commented out the m_ofn.Flags OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON from 
the constructor and put it in the OnInitialUpdate(). That solved all my 
problems. 

Interestingly, I heard a couple of you relating the "network" 
button with the "help" button, but, as it stands, I could get rid of the 
"network" button and still retained the"help" button on my dialog. 
 
Now, am I wrong in initializing m_ofn members in the constructor ??
or is it, that MSVC is behaving awkwardly in this particular case ??
Why doesn't it allow me to set the flaxgs in the constructor ??

Mihir.

Try to use m_ofn.Flags |= OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON instead.

This behaviour wouldn't be unique to Microsoft Visual C++.  It would
be evident in any C++ compiler.

Since you set the value, what used to be in the variable is now gone.
If you code:

	int n;
	n = 6;
	n = 37;

you expect n to contain 37, not six.  Similarly, if you code:

	m_ofn.Flags = OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON;

you expect m_ofn.Flags to contain OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON, not some other
stuff.

The Flags member is a group of binary flags. If you want to adjust them
without changing the other flags that are already set, you should use
the bitwise or assignment operator:

	m_ofn.Flags |= OFN_NONETWORKBUTTON;

instead of doing a direct assignment.

No.

No.

>Why doesn't it allow me to set the flaxgs in the constructor ??

It does.  You just have to know how to use it.

You are right!

You've lost MFC support for this dialog.

I was right!

The explanation is very simple. MFC's code to CFileDialogs sets some values to "m_ofn.Flags". When you assing values to this variable in your constructor, you override MFC flags anddoes not give to MFC the opprtunity to set a hook to dialog.
Of course, it is more convinient to do such assigments in constructor. Use operator '|=' instead of '=' and your problem will be solved.

-----From: Syed 

Just a thought:-
Try putting all your m_ofn initialization in DoModal() - derive DoModal from
CFIleDialog and place all the initialization in your 'customized CFileDialog':-
int CMyFileDialog::DoModal()
{
 m_ofn.XXXXX  =
 ...
 ...
 return CFileDialog::DoModal()
}

I beleive MFC's help tells that m_ofn members should be set after
construction , I don't know why ??? 

It can be done like this

myFileDlg = new CMyFileDialog 
myFileDlg.m_ofn ....//set all elements
myFileDlg->DoModal()
