SUMMARY
When using an ActiveX control, you find situations where there is a need to call
member functions or gain access to member variables of the control derived class
from its associated property page. This can be achieved by making use of the
array of IDispatch pointers (held by each property page) that represent the
objects being affected due to the manipulations done through the property page.
This article explains in detail how this can implemented and gives a code sample
to illustrate it.
MORE INFORMATION
Property sheets, in an ActiveX control, allow an end user to directly manipulate
the control’s properties by displaying one or more property pages that display a
collection of properties. These properties could belong either to one particular
control or to a collection of ActiveX controls.
Each ActiveX control property page is an in-proc object with its own CLSID that
implements the interface IPropertyPage. The IPropertyPage::SetObjects member
function is used to provide a property page with pointers to the objects
(IUnknowns) manipulated by this particular page. Please refer to the OLE
Programmer’s Reference, Vol. 1, for more information about the SetObjects
function.
The MFC implementation for the IPropertyPage interface stores the object pointers
as an array of IDispatchs representing the controls that are affected by a
particular property page. This array can be accessed by using
COlePropertyPage::GetObjectArray(). The property pages in MFC make use of this
IDispatch array to apply the changes directly to those objects (that is, the
controls) by creating a COleDispatchDriver-derived class, attaching the
IDispatch to this class, and invoking the SetProperty/GetProperty of
COleDispatchDriver to convey the change to the control-derived class.
An ActiveX Control generated using the ControlWizard creates a property page that
can be used to manipulate the properties of one particular ActiveX control
rather than manipulating a collection of controls. Hence, the control associated
to a property page can be accessed by obtaining the previously mentioned
IDispatch array in the COlePropertyPage and calling the static function
CCmdTarget::FromIDispatch to return a pointer to the CCmdTarget object
associated with any one of the IDispatchs. The sample code section of this
article illustraties this method.
Note that calling CCmdTarget::FromIDispatch(), for an IDispatch pointer belonging
to an ActiveX Control, will always return NULL in versions before MFC 4.x. For
more information about this problem, please see the following article in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base:
Q138414 PRB: FromIDispatch Returns NULL for OLE Control
This is no longer a problem in versions MFC 4.x.
Sample Code
// The header file of the control-derived class must be included in// the same source file.#include "myctrl.h"CMyCtrl* CMyPropPage::GetControlClass(){CMyCtrl *pMyCtrl;ULONG Ulong;// Get the array of IDispatchs stored in the property pageLPDISPATCH FAR *m_lpDispatch = GetObjectArray(&Ulong);// Get the CCmdTarget object associated to any one of the above// array elementspMyCtrl = (CMyCtrl*) CCmdTarget::FromIDispatch(m_lpDispatch[0]);// Cleanupreturn pMyCtrl;}// If your control has a public member variable, in this case// I am using m_direct_control, then that variable can be// manipulated as follows.void CMyPropPage::OnLButtonDown(UINT nFlags, CPoint point){// Modify a member variable of Control directly.CMyCtrl *pMyCtrl = GetControlClass();if (pMyCtrl){pMyCtrl->m_direct_control++;// Display the new value of the variable in a message box.char buf[100];AfxMessageBox (_itoa (pMyCtrl->m_direct_control, buf, 10));}COlePropertyPage::OnLButtonDown(nFlags, point);}
In this code, it is assumed that the array of IDispatchs returned from
GetObjectArray holds the same IDispatch pointer because in a default
ControlWizard-generated application, each property page manipulates a particular
ActiveX control.
IMPORTANT NOTE: You may get NULL returned from CCmdTarget::FromIDispatch() when
the control is created with aggregation support. This behavior is noticable in
containers such as Visual C++ 6.0 ActiveX Test Container, Excel 97, Excel 2000,
Frontpage 98, and perhaps others. Therefore, the proposed method above won’t
work in those containers. A possible workaround is to make the control
nonaggregatable by setting the following in the control constructor:
CPropPageAccessCtrl::CPropPageAccessCtrl(){InitializeIIDs(&IID_DPropPageAccess, &IID_DPropPageAccessEvents);//new code//no aggregation please! m_xInnerUnknown = 0; //Base class COleControl set this with call to EnableAggregation()//end of new code}
While this workaround will work for Visual C++ ActiveX Test Container 6.0, this
workaround is not an option for containers that only support such aggregatable
controls as Excel 97 and Excel 2000. Disabling aggregation would prevent end
users from adding the control to an Excel spreadsheet. One could add a long
property to the control and set it to the “this” pointer of the control. Then,
one could retrieve this property from the page, do a cast on the value to the
control’s type, and use it. For additional information about this method, please
