[RESOLVED] {win32] - how make the context menu corresponding to messages?

[Cambalinho]

i have these code for show the context menu:

POINT pCursor;
                        GetCursorPos(&pCursor);
                        HMENU test=GetSubMenu(GetMenu(HandleWindow),0);
                        SetForegroundWindow(HandleWindow);
                        TrackPopupMenu(test, TPM_LEFTBUTTON | TPM_RIGHTALIGN, pCursor.x, pCursor.y, 0, HandleWindow, NULL);
                        PostMessage(HandleWindow, WM_NULL, 0, 0);

the context menu is showed without a problem. but when i click on menu items, nothing happens... why?
(i use WM_MENUCOMMAND message, because i use the menu notifications)
heres my message loop function(but works fine):

//Message Loop
WPARAM MessageLoop()
{
    MSG msgEvents;
    while(GetMessage(&msgEvents, NULL, 0, 0) > 0)
    {
        if(IsChild(GetForegroundWindow(),msgEvents.hwnd)==TRUE || GetForegroundWindow()==msgEvents.hwnd)
        {
            if(IsDialogMessage(GetForegroundWindow(), &msgEvents) == TRUE)
            {
                 TranslateMessage(&msgEvents);
                 DispatchMessage(&msgEvents);
            }
        }
    }
    return msgEvents.wParam;
}

anotherthing: the WM_MENUSELECT message works normaly. unless i can, using the WM_MENUSELECT, for detect the mouse click.

But how and where do you handle this WM_MENUCOMMAND message? You didn't show it in your OP.

sorry about that:

case WM_INITMENUPOPUP:
                {
                    menuhandle=(HMENU)wParam;
                    return DefWindowProc(HandleWindow, msg, wParam, lParam);
                }
                break;


case WM_MENUCOMMAND:
                {
                    MENUITEMINFO menuInfo;
                    menuInfo.cbSize = sizeof(MENUITEMINFO);
                    menuInfo.fMask=MIIM_DATA;
                    if(GetMenuItemInfo((HMENU)lParam,(UINT) wParam, true, &menuInfo )!=0)
                    {
                        Menu *mMenu = (Menu *) menuInfo.dwItemData;
                        if(mMenu!=NULL)
                            mMenu->Click();
                    }
                    menuhandle=NULL;

                }
                break;

1. Is the code under case WM_MENUCOMMAND: executed?
2. What is the return value of GetMenuItemInfo? TRUE or FALSE?
3. What is Menu? What is the value of mMenu? Isn't it NULL?
4. What does the

     mMenu->Click();

do? Is it executed?

IOW, did you debug your code or, as usual, you are trying to let the Forum do your job?

if i click on menu item, on menu bar, the Click lambda is executed, the problem is only on menu context

[VictorN]

if i click on menu item, on menu bar, the Click lambda is executed, the problem is only on menu context

I put four questions trying to help you.
And you did not answer any.
So what help do you consider?

[Cambalinho]

i tested now, the WM_MENUCOMMAND, on menu context, isn't executed

[Cambalinho]

tested: the WM_COMMAND is executed. why if the menu item style is notification?

[Cambalinho]

anotherthing form msdn: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...=vs.85%29.aspx

"
Menus

If an application enables a menu separator, the system sends a WM_COMMAND message with the low-word of the wParam parameter set to zero when the user selects the separator.
If a menu is defined with a MENUINFO.dwStyle value of MNS_NOTIFYBYPOS, WM_MENUCOMMAND is sent instead of WM_COMMAND."

[VictorN]

tested: the WM_COMMAND is executed. why if the menu item style is notification?

What is "notification"? Do you mean MNS_NOTIFYBYPOS style? Where and how do you set it for the menu?

BTW, what is the reason to handle WM_MENUCOMMAND rather than WM_COMMAND message?

[Cambalinho]

when i create the menu items:

MENUINFO mnInfo;
        mnInfo.cbSize=sizeof(MENUINFO);
        mnInfo.fMask=MIM_STYLE;
        if(systmenu==false)
            GetMenuInfo(GetMenu(MainHWND),&mnInfo);
        else
            GetMenuInfo(GetSystemMenu(MainHWND,false),&mnInfo);
        mnInfo.cbSize=sizeof(MENUINFO);
        mnInfo.fMask=MIM_STYLE;
        mnInfo.dwStyle=MNS_NOTIFYBYPOS;
        if(systmenu==false)
            SetMenuInfo(GetMenu(MainHWND),&mnInfo);
        else
            SetMenuInfo(GetSystemMenu(MainHWND,false),&mnInfo);

but you give me the help that i need
thanks for all

case WM_COMMAND:
                {
                    if(HIWORD(wParam)==0)
                    {
                        if (GetMenuState((HMENU)menuhandle,(UINT)LOWORD(wParam),MF_BYCOMMAND)!=0xFFFFFFFF )
                        {
                            MENUITEMINFO menuInfo;
                            menuInfo.cbSize = sizeof(MENUITEMINFO);
                            menuInfo.fMask=MIIM_DATA;

                            GetMenuItemInfo(menuhandle,(UINT) LOWORD(wParam), FALSE, &menuInfo );

                            Menu *mMenu = (Menu *) menuInfo.dwItemData;
                            if (mMenu!=NULL)
                            {
                                mMenu->Click();
                            }
                        }
                    }

                    SendMessage((HWND)lParam , WM_COMMAND, wParam, lParam);
                    return DefWindowProc(HandleWindow, msg, wParam, lParam);
                }
                break;

the WM_COMMAND, seems, don't give me the HMENU item, but i have it with WM_INITMENUPOPUP message. and now works fine. but i continue confused why these happens

I never used/handled WM_MENUCOMMAND, so can only guess.
What you you would add MIM_APPLYTOSUBMENUS flag to the menu mask?

MENUINFO mnInfo;
        mnInfo.cbSize=sizeof(MENUINFO);
        mnInfo.fMask=MIM_STYLE | MIM_APPLYTOSUBMENUS;
