DDT: lParam in WM_INITDIALOG not supported.

[E B Knoppert]

I really needed this feature, it seems DDT doesn't use the dwInitParam (DialogBoxParam)
Now i'm messing with postmessage and custom messagenr.
I want a pointer to a structure somewhere else.

Is their a way to do this with DDT in a more direct way?

BTW, For the next release it should be handy to implement CONTROL POST. (< CONTROL SEND)

Thanks,

EB,
How about Get/SetProp ??

Edwin --
What about Patrice Terrier's idea of direct call callback function ?
For DDT it looks so:

  #Dim All
  #Compile Exe
  #Register None
  #Include "WIN32API.INC"
 
  CallBack Function DlgCallBack
     Select Case CbMsg
        Case %WM_USER + 1: SetWindowText CbHndl, Str$(CbWparam) + Str$(CbLparam)
     End Select
  End Function
 
  Function PbMain
    Dim hDlg As Long
    Dialog New 0, "DDTExample",,, 120, 30, %WS_CAPTION Or %WS_SYSMENU To hDlg
    CallWindowProc CodePtr(DlgCallBack), hDlg, %WM_USER + 1, 25, 50
    Dialog Show Modal hDlg Call DlgCallBack
End Function

There both good ideas.
I prefer the lParam on WM_CREATE or WM_INITDIALOG.

The PROP comes close, calling the procedure also.
Stil additional code required.

Semen, your sollution might become really handy, i use DDT a lot for modal boxes, execution of things 'from' the dialog codeproc i allways solved by using postmessage, now i have a 'sendmessage'. (Or i make use of a thread)

JC, did you had any luck with the 2.5 spread yet?

Thanks,

Yes but only with SDK not DDT.

Maybe you can give me a scanned DDT + DLB file?
