F1 key Winhelp and QuickWin problems

presser — Wed, 12 Sep 2001 23:15:59 GMT

I succeeded at last applying WinHelp in a context-sensitive mode and used for this the subject: Trouble with context-sensitive help, from hbell November 26,2000. But now I stick in a context-help for the menu items. Glad to find exactly the same subject submitted from Anthony Richards April 25,2001 3:59am. As there is written, the author replaced the default window procedure DefWindowProc with the own one MyWndProc. I can't find DefWindowProc in my QuickWin Project and don't know where to place and call MyWndProc. Is there any example of such a procedure you could send me? I would be very glad about some more detailed information.

Tony Richards and I quite struggled to make F1 on QuickWin menus work... If you
wish, I can send you our correspondence (quite lengthy)... maybe I could dig out
sample workspace also. Please drop access to code of QuickWin window procs, you can still install your own
procedure to add or change functionality. The procedure must be of prototype

 
INTEGER FUNCTION MyWndProc(hWnd, Msg, wParam, lParam) 
!DEC$ATTRIBUTES STDCALL:: MyWndProc 
USE DFWIN 
USE GLOBALS, ONLY: lpfnOldWndProc 
USE DFWIN 
SELECT CASE(Msg) 
CASE(WM_SOMETHING) 
   !Process desired messages here 
CASE DEFAULT 
   MyWndProc = CallWindowProc(lpfnOldWndProc, hWnd, Msg, wParam, lParam) 
END SELECT

The window procedure is installed using

 
hWnd=GETHWNDQQ(...) 
lpfnOldWndProc=SetWindowLong(hWnd, GWL_WNDPROC, LOC(MyWndProc))

IIRC POKER sample illustrates the technique. (Btw, Steve, ain't it a nice theme
for Dr Fortran's article -- I don't recall there was one).

Regards
Jugoslav

Many thanks, Mr.Dujic and Mr.Richards for your help and suggestions. As you recommended I used the subclass module from the Poker sample and modified it and it works as far as I can see. I also tried to setup the GLOBEWIRE workspace with the source code you included in your e-mails, but there were too many unresolved externals at the moment.
Many thanks again for taking the trouble.

There remains one problem so far in using context-sensitive help for menu items in my QuickWin project. Although the desired help topic is displayed correctly, there appears always a messagebox together with the topic saying that there is no help for this topic. I can't get rid of it. Is there any means to suppress that message?
Thank you very much.

I assume that, as in my case, the message box was the result of the QUICKWIN Help file being also called for as a result of F1 being pressed.

If you are solving the help problem by sub-classing, as recommended in earlier postings to this thread, then you should be intercepting WM_HELP messages to the procedure handling messages for the window with the menu that F1 causes in the window procedure (call it MyWndProc for example) that you have inserted in place of the original one (call it PrevWndProc ). What I found (as a result of Jugoslav Dujic's efforts) was that the WM_ENTERIDLE also had to be intercepted and not passed on to the original window procedure. SO you should have something like

 
 
   integer*4 pHI !	pointer to HELPINFO structure needed by WM_HELP command   
 !	HELPINFO structure pointed to by WM_HELP command pointer   
   type (T_HELPINFO)::         HI; pointer(pHI, HI)   
! Define the WM_HELP parameter here, just in case it is not   
! already included in one of the USEd modules. Give it another name   
! to avoid a clash if it is already defined locally.   
   integer(4), parameter::     WM_HELP_       = #0053   
!   
	integer*4	 retint, rethelp, ctrlid, hWndframe   
!     
	select case ( mesg )      ! WM_ENTERIDLE    
      case (WM_ENTERIDLE)   
! Jugoslav Dujic solved the problem by discovering that the WM_ENTERIDLE   
! message was the problem.   
! Trap this here to prevent interfering QuickWin Help search   
		MyWndProc=0   !	 WM_HELP:    
      case (WM_HELP_)   
!  Get HELPINFO data into HI, pointed to by pHI, by setting the pointer pHI to lParam   
        pHI=lParam   
       ctrlid=HI%iCtrlID

I found that intercepting this WM_ENTERIDLE halted the QuickWIn frame windows call to WInHelp that is started at the same time. I do not understand exactly why this behaviour happens, but it solved my problem.

Thank you very much again for your help. With intercepting the WM_ENTERIDLE command in MyWndProc, the box with the message: "no help available for this item" disappeared.
I'm feeling a bit like in the fairy-tale:" the fisherman and his wife", when I put another question. Is there a possibility to use submenus in a Quickwin project? I mean in the way, that further menu items are displayed automaticly with a menu item highlighted with the mouse.

Well, yes, at the same price as F1 -- you have to take care about handling.
Here's a routine that installs submenus to QuickWin main menu. From then on,
you have to process WM_COMMAND in subclassed FrameWindowProc.
The code below installs four submenus, each with nItems, to first four items of 1st drop-down menu. Well, it's little dusty, and it's a bit complicated (in order to make code shorter) but the point is using CreatePopupMenu/ AppendMenu/ ModifyMenu.

What a preciseness -- only three words got cut by Forum software :-).
All that is left is to process WM_COMMAND message in subclassed frame window proc. ID_ constants above are PARAMETERs (you can add them as resource.fd constants using "Resource symbols" from context-menu for "MyApp resources" in ResourceView, or hard-code them other way).

 
SELECT CASE(Msg) 
... 
CASE(WM_COMMAND) 
    SELECT CASE(LOWORD(wParam)) 
    CASE(ID_BUTTON_PONAP) 
        !Do something here 
    CASE(... 
    CASE DEFAULT 
        FrameWindowProc=CallWindowProc(lpfnOldFrameProc, hWnd, Msg, wParam, lParam) 
...
