[RESOLVED] Multiple Modeless Dialogs (MFC)

[Cpp_Noob]

i have 2 dialogs , 1 is the "main" dialog and another 1 is a modeless dialog the it suppose to be opened several times simultaneously


so each time i call a new instance of the modeless dialog i do this

CManager **FM_Dialog;  //global var that points to dialog class


FM_Dialog[0] = new CManager;  //allocate a new instance of the dialog

FM_Dialog[0]->Create(CManager::IDD,this);    //Show to user
FM_Dialog[0]->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);

im getting an error of "Unhandled exception blah blah blah"
on this line FM_Dialog[0] = new CManager;

what im i doing wrong here?

You need to allocate space for dialog pointers, like:

#define MAX_DIALOGS 100

CManager *FM_Dialog[MAX_DIALOGS];

Or use some container:

list<CManager*> FM_Dialog;

CManager* pDialog = new CManager; //allocate a new instance of the dialog
pDialog->Create(CManager::IDD,this); //Show to user
pDialog->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
FM_Dialog->push_back(pDialog);
