Hello folks,

A friend of mine needs help with GlockenSpiel CommonView!

The problem is that she wants to put a menubar in a child window but can't find
a way to make it works...

Here is what she did code :

class ChildWin : public ChildAppWindow {
private:
	Menu menu;
	Menu menubar;
public:
	ChildWin(pWindow);
	~ChildWin();
};

ChildWin::ChildWin(pWindow parent) : (parent)
{
	UnableBorder();
	ChangePosition(Point(100,100));
	ChangeSize(Dimension(200,200));

	// Here is the stuff that should work
	// but don't ....

	menu.AppendItem(1,"Load");
	menu.AppendItem(2,"Save");
	menubar.AppendItem(&menu,"File");
	ChangeMenu(&menubar);
}

Anybody got an idea why this fails ?

Note : this is done with C++ 1.2 and I suspect the version of CommonView
       to be somehow out of date...

Reply by Email please.

Thanx in advance,

-- "Jessie"
