Plugin - Create a custom MDI Child window

[PoulG]

Hi,

Is there any way to create a custom form as MDI child in the plugin dll?

I have tried almost anything with the IDE_GetXXXHandle and so on but nothing really works.

Strictly speaking this is not possible. If you are using Delphi 7 there is a limited possibility though. Just let me know if you are using Delphi 7 and I will send you the necessary information.

Hi Marco,

Hmmm. not the answer I was looking for.

Anyway, I have read that i 6.1 there will be an ER diagramming feature.

The funnie things is that I'm 80% finished with a ER Diagram Plugin.

And one of the last things was this MDI problem.

How close are you to be finishing your diagram window?

Hello Marco,

Could you please send me that information.

@PoulG: We are about 50% done with the Diagram Window. It will be more than a data (ER) diagram though. Did you use Delphi?

@Joachim: I will send you the information shortly.

Nope I'm using Builder!

In that case you cannot create an MDI child window.

Could you send me the delphi info?

 

[Marco Kalter]

I might be an idea to post the information somewhere on the website? I know I received the info once before, but I don't know what I put it. So, if you cannot put it on the site, then please send me the info again...

Thanks in advance,
Patrick

Sure, you can download it here . A C++Builder version from PoulG is included as well.
