FIX: ClassWizard Generates Incorrect UDN_DELTAPOS Handler (133276)



The information in this article applies to:

  • The ClassWizard, when used with:
    • Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Professional Edition 2.1
    • Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Professional Edition 2.2

This article was previously published under Q133276

SYMPTOMS

ClassWizard creates incorrect code for a handler for the UDN_DELTAPOS notification message of the CSpinButtonCtrl common control.

RESOLUTION

The generated handler function will look like this (assuming that the CSpinButtonCtrl is in a dialog):
  void CAboutDlg::OnDeltaposSpin1(NMHDR* pNMHDR, LRESULT* pResult)
      {
      NM_UPDOWN;
      // TODO: Add your control notification handler code here

      *pResult = 0;
      }
				
Modify the code to look like this:
  void CAboutDlg::OnDeltaposSpin1(NMHDR* pNMHDR, LRESULT* pResult)
      {
      NM_UPDOWN* pUpDown = (NM_UPDOWN*)pNMHDR;

      // TODO: Add your control notification handler code here

      *pResult = 0;
      }
				
By typecasting the pointer to the NMHDR structure, you can access additional data that is passed after the NMHDR.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in Visual C++, 32-bit Edition, version 4.0.
