Modeless Dialog, connecting it with the rest of the program

[redoctober]

Hi,
I've got question. I have a dialog box which i create as modeless using Create() function. And i have to change some parameters in the Doc object as soon as i click on button on the dialog, but i can find a way to get a hadle to the Doc object. Now i'm curious is there any graceful way to obtain a handle to my Doc or View object from inside of my dialog class? Right now i just rewrote constructor for the dialog class so that when i instantiate it i send a pointer to my Doc object and store it inside the dialog class. It works but i thought that it can be done in better way. Any thoughts on that?
Thanks.

This is one way of doing the job, passing the m_pDoc as parameter to the constructor.

Another one you should consider is working with the GetActiveDocument function from your CFrameWnd derived class (ussually CMainFrame) you get a pointer with (CMainFrame*)AfxGetMainWnd()

Or you can pass a pointer to the view (which can can be the parent of your dialog so that you can get it with GetParent) and from that pointer call the GetDocument function.

Hope this helps, s-)
