OnContextMenu in a doc/view

Hi,

On the view derived from CView I have created a window using CWnd::Create. The context menu is shown correct no matter if I right click on the created child window or inside the view window itself. But the command e.g. ID_EDIT_COPY do not work if right click on the child window but the view window.
The child window eats the command.
How can I redirect the command to the parent window? I tried to use OnCmdMsg but this does not work. (stack overflow)

I already use OnCmdMsg in the view class because some commands should be sent to the child. I think that the command is sent from one OnCmdMsg to the other and back and....

Any idea?

Please show us some code. ...post that two functions what are in the parent and in the child window(OnCmdMsg ).

I usually just do this:

Code:

---

CPoint pt;
::GetCursorPos(&pt);
DWORD selection = popup_menu->TrackPopupMenu(
TPM_LEFTALIGN|TPM_RIGHTBUTTON|TPM_NONOTIFY|TPM_RETURNCMD,
pt.x,
pt.y,
this);
view->PostMessage(WM_COMMAND,selection,0);

Thanks for the help!


pContextMenu->TrackPopupMenu (TPM_LEFTALIGN | TPM_RIGHTBUTTON,
CellPoint.x, CellPoint.y, this/*pWnd*/);

The prblem was that I should ude "this" not the child window "pWnd".
