MFC GUI Programming

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

I am working on a project right now that requires me to create a MFC Windows GUI. Basically it needs to be able to pop up after hitting a button from another main application which would also be a GUI ( The main window).

I have some idea how to do this but am not for sure. I am using Visual Studio 2005.


I am unsure if I am doing it the right way.

Anybody have any suggestion on how I should approach the set up. Basically it needs to be a child GUI that attaches to a main application GUI when a button is pressed to launch it. This child gui will be calling functions or passing information to and from the main application.

Should I create a project with a CWinApp and CFrameWnd for this GUI or should I create just a .dll with only Dialogs for the GUI ( I can't run the second one to test).

I'm confused at the moment and the book I have is not to helpful...on how I should approach the set up.

Thank you...
