[MFC Newbie] workflow for calling function from InitInstance

[KasperD]

Hi everybody.

As some of you might have read in my previous thread (http://www.codeguru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=476458) I'm trying to add a commandline interface to an existing MFC application.

I'm new to MFC, but do have some C++ experience.

Even though I'm new to MFC, I've found out that it's a SDI app, and I've read about the relationship between the CMainFram, CView and CDocument classes.

Here is what I want to do: Once I locate a switch (or option) in my commandline, I want to execute a function from my InitInstance() - code exampel below:

BOOL CMyMlvApp::InitInstance()
{
	....

	CommandLineParser cmdInfo;
	ParseCommandLine(cmdInfo);

	if(cmdInfo.IsLoad())
	{
                //Here I want to call the load-function
		AfxMessageBox("Hello World from Load");
	}
	if(cmdInfo.IsVerify())
	{
                //Here I want to call the verify-function
		AfxMessageBox("Hello World from Verify");
	}
	if(cmdInfo.IsReset())
	{
                //Here I want to call the reset-function
		AfxMessageBox("Hello World from Reset");
	}

	// Dispatch commands specified on the command line
	if (!ProcessShellCommand(cmdInfo))
		return FALSE;

        ....
}

I've located the functions I want to call in the CDocument class

void CMyMlvDoc::OnFunctionVerify() 
{
	CRtMem RtMem(&m_MlvConfig,m_ProcessorId);
	
	if (RtMem.m_Status==RT_OK)
	{
		CVerifyDlg dlg(&RtMem,&m_hexlineList);
		
		dlg.m_VerifyDescription=GetTitle();
		
		dlg.DoModal();
	}
	else
		AfxMessageBox("Verify failed");
}

I have tried creating an object of CMyMlvDoc, and calling the "OnFunctionVerify()", but it's protected. And I've tried copying the content of the function directly into the InitInstance - no succes.

So what I want to know is: how is the workflow for calling this function in my InitInstance-function?

If you need any more information, let me know
