Is it possible to add CMFCToolBar to a dialog?

Question

Hi!

I just tryed the standard way for adding CToolbar to a dialog on the new CMFCToolBar. But it doesn't work. Befor I dip into the new implementation, I want to know if it actually possible?

I'm not sure what you mean by "the standard way", but you can certainly do it programatically:

// In MyDlg.h
class CMyDlg : public CDialog
{
...
    CMFCToolBar m_ToolBar;
...
};

// In MyDlg.cpp
BOOL CMyDlg::OnInitDialog()
{
...
    if( m_ToolBar.Create( this, AFX_DEFAULT_TOOLBAR_STYLE, 100 ) )
    {
        m_ToolBar.SetPaneStyle( m_ToolBar.GetPaneStyle() 
            & ~(CBRS_GRIPPER | CBRS_SIZE_DYNAMIC | CBRS_BORDER_ANY) );

        m_ToolBar.InsertButton( CMFCToolBarButton( ID_APP_ABOUT, -1, _T("About") ) );
        m_ToolBar.InsertButton( CMFCToolBarButton( ID_APP_EXIT, -1, _T("Exit") ) );

        CSize   sizeToolBar = m_ToolBar.CalcFixedLayout( FALSE, TRUE );
        m_ToolBar.SetWindowPos( NULL, 0, 0, sizeToolBar.cx, sizeToolBar.cy,
      SWP_NOACTIVATE | SWP_NOZORDER );
    }
...
}
