I'm (trying to) program an addin in VC++ (VS 2005) for Outlook 2003
How do I catch the event when the user clicks a button within the menu? Is
there a way to DispEventAdvise for the Office::CommandBarControls or the
Office::CommandBarPopup which "owns" the menu items?
My addin has a toolbar, which has a menu (Office::msoControlPopup).
I am able to listen to events when the user clicks on a button in my toolbar, but not when we clicks on a menu item(Office::msoControlPopup) in the toolbar
what should i do to listen to that event when user clicks on a menu in my toolbar.
Here is my sample code:
I have created a CEventWrapper class which implements IDispEventSimpleImpl Interface.
CEventWrapper.h
//Implemented a class from IDispEventSimpleImpl
class CEventWrapper :public IDispEventSimpleImpl<1,CEventWrapper ,&__uuidof( Office::_CommandBarButtonEvents)>
{
public:
CEventWrapper (void);
CEventWrapper ( Outlook::_ExplorerPtr spExplrPtr, Office::_CommandBarButtonPtr spCmdBrBtnPtr);
CEventWrapper (void);
Office::_CommandBarButtonPtr m_spCmdBrBtnPtr;
}
typedef IDispEventSimpleImpl< CEventWrapper.h&__uuidof(Office::_CommandBarButtonEvents)> CmdBarBtnEvnts;
//Implemented Sink map.
BEGIN_SINK_MAP CEventWrapper
SINK_ENTRY_INFO(1, __uuidof(Office::_CommandBarButtonEvents),0x1, OnButtonClick , &OnButtonClickInfo)
END_SINK_MAP()
HRESULT __stdcall OnButtonClick(LPDISPATCH lpBtnDisp, VARIANT_BOOL *vbCancelDefault)
{
//Event Handler
}
CEventWrapper.cpp
_ATL_FUNC_INFO OnButtonClickInfo ={CC_STDCALL,VT_EMPTY,2,{VT_DISPATCH,VT_BOOL}};
CEventWrapper ( Outlook::_ExplorerPtr spExplrPtr, Office::_CommandBarButtonPtr spCmdBrBtnPtr)
{
CmdBarBtnEvnts::DispEventAdvise((IDispatch*)m_spCmdBrBtnPtr); //Attaching to the event source.
}
HRESULT __stdcall CButtonWrapper::OnButtonClick(LPDISPATCH lpBtnDisp, VARIANT_BOOL *vbCancelDefault)
{
//B. Logic.
}
Adding "Office::msoControlPopup" to the toolbar.
{
//Added from a different class in "OnConnection"..
Office::CommandBarControlPtr spCmdBrCtrlPtr;
Office::CommandBarControlsPtr spCmdBrCtrlsPtr
spCmdBrCtrlPtr = spCmdBrCtrlsPtr->Add( vCtrlTyp, vMissng,vMissng,vMissng,vIsTempry);
HRESULT hr = spCmdBrCtrlPtr->QueryInterface( __uuidof( Office::CommandBarPopup),
(void**)&m_spCmdBrPopupPtr);
spCmdBrCtrlPtr = m_spCmdBrPopupPtr->Controls->Add(vCtrlTypBtn, vMissng, vMissng, vMissng, vIsTempry);
CmdBarBtnEvnts::DispEventAdvise( (LPDISPATCH)m_spCmdBrBtnPtr );
}
Thanks in Advance.
