The MATHS, MATHS1, MATHS2, and MATHS3 samples demonstrate how you can create ActiveX controls and embed them in an MFC ActiveX container.
The main dialog class in this application, CMathsDlg, has two controls, a check box, labeled "Opposite," and a control of the class CMathsCtl, which is derived from CWnd.
CMathsDlg's override of OnInitDialog displays a query dialog with a list box that presents three options.
When you select a control from the list box and dismiss the query dialog, the main dialog retrieves the index of the control you selected. It then creates a CMathsCtl object below the check box.
CMathsDlg assigns the index of the control you selected to it's CMathsCtrl member's m_idControl member. The CMathsCtl object uses this identifier to determine which CLSID to pass to its CreateControl function. This CLSID determines which of the three ActiveX controls will be instantiated.
The three controls, MATHS1, MATHS2, and MATHS3 are very similar. MATHS1 draws a horizontal line and a vertical line. If the "Opposite" check box is checked, it only draws the horizontal line. When you tap one of the lines with the stylus, the control fires an "Inside" event to its container. When you tap any other part of the control, it fires an "Outside" event.
When the control's container, the CMathsDlg object, receives an "Inside" event, it reverses the foreground and background colors of its CMathCtl object. When it receives an "Outside" event, it toggles the check state of the "Opposite" check box. Whenever the state changes, the ActiveX control redraws itself.
The MATHS2 and MATHS3 controls behave the same way as MATHS1, except that MATHS2 draws diagonal lines, instead of horizontal and vertical, and MATHS3 draws a vertical line if "Opposite" is not checked, or a circle, if it is.
These samples demonstrate the following keywords:
