BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP and inheritance

[vjed...@atlas.cz]

Hello,

I have a class X inherited from CView and another class Y inherited
from X.

It seems BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP does not work in both classes X and Y. Is
that a limitation of MFC or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you
Vaclav

Vaclav:

It should work. In Y.cpp you must have

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(Y, X)
// messages here
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

Praise the Lord that Mr. Newcomer is off to some meeting, else you'd
have got a pretty sharp retort about how to do a proper error report
(of course, he'd be absolutely right about it, because you should at
the very least have posted an error message, better even a complete
minimal example).

Regards,

Actually, I've been back for over a week. And yes, the notion of "not work" was
ill-defined. Lack of code samples definitely makes it hard to analyze. David may have
already answered it.

It has been working fine for me for years - but note what David Wi.. says
about getting the inheritance right.

There was no error message, the handlers just did not get called :)
Anyway, David was right. The superclass was not set correctly.
It is working now.

Thank you
Vaclav
