FIX: ClassWizard Generates Incorrect UDN_DELTAPOS Handler

ID: Q133276

The information in this article applies to:

The ClassWizard, included with:
- Microsoft Visual C++ 32-bit Edition, versions 2.1, 2.2

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.
