如何在C ++中从控制台应用程序显示MFC对话框？

Question

I have a simple MFC dialog.

class CMessageBoxWithCustomTextDlg : public CDialogEx
{
// Construction
public:
    CMessageBoxWithCustomTextDlg(CWnd* pParent = NULL); // standard constructor

    __declspec(dllexport) void SetData(std::string& data);

// Dialog Data
    enum { IDD = IDD_MESSAGEBOXWITHCUSTOMTEXT_DIALOG };

    protected:
    virtual void DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX);    // DDX/DDV support


// Implementation
protected:
    HICON m_hIcon;

    // Generated message map functions
    virtual BOOL OnInitDialog();
    afx_msg void OnPaint();
    afx_msg HCURSOR OnQueryDragIcon();
    DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
public:
  afx_msg void OnBnClickedShowMessagebox();
};

I would like to export it as dll and call it from a simple console application. Is it possible?

Answer 1

It is possible; here is how I did it: For your console application have it be simply this:

#include <Windows.h>

typedef void (*EntryFunc)();
int main()
{
   HMODULE hMod = LoadLibrary(L"MFCDll.dll");

   EntryFunc func = (EntryFunc)GetProcAddress(hMod, "entrypoint");
   func();
}

The name of the DLL is MFCDll.dll and there is an exported function called entrypoint in that DLL.

For the DLL I created a New MFC DLL project. And other than the dialog code and the dialog in the resources add this code:

extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) void entrypoint()
{
   AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetStaticModuleState());
   CMessageBoxWithCustomTextDlg dlg;
   dlg.DoModal();
}

And the console program will load the DLL, call into the DLL and the dialog shows.
