mfc tab control switch tabs
- by MRM
I created a simple tab control that has 2 tabs (each tab is a different dialog). The thing is that i don't have any idea how to switch between tabs (when the user presses Titlu Tab1 to show the dialog i made for the first tab, and when it presses Titlu Tab2 to show my other dialog). I added a handler for changing items, but i don't know how should i acces some kind of index or child for tabs.
Tab1.h and Tab2.h are headers for dialogs that show only static texts with the name of the each tab.
There may be an obvious answer to my question, but i am a real newbie in c++ and MFC.
This is my header:
// CTabControlDlg.h : header file
//
#pragma once
#include "afxcmn.h"
#include "Tab1.h"
#include "Tab2.h"
// CCTabControlDlg dialog
class CCTabControlDlg : public CDialog
{
// Construction
public:
CCTabControlDlg(CWnd* pParent = NULL); // standard constructor
// Dialog Data
enum { IDD = IDD_CTABCONTROL_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 OnSysCommand(UINT nID, LPARAM lParam);
afx_msg void OnPaint();
afx_msg HCURSOR OnQueryDragIcon();
DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
public:
CTabCtrl m_tabcontrol1;
CTab1 m_tab1;
CTab2 m_tab2;
afx_msg void OnTcnSelchangeTabcontrol(NMHDR *pNMHDR, LRESULT *pResult);
};
And this is the .cpp:
// CTabControlDlg.cpp : implementation file
//
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "CTabControl.h"
#include "CTabControlDlg.h"
#ifdef _DEBUG
#define new DEBUG_NEW
#endif
// CAboutDlg dialog used for App About

{

// Implementation
protected:
DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
};
