Getting a Document pointer from a dialog derived

[bulgakov]

WEhats the best way to get a pointer to the document
from a CDialog derived class ? And a pointer to the view ?

I am developing an MDI.

Thanks

Marcus,

I would guess for an MDI application the best way would be for the code creating the Dialog to pass the document object as a parameter to the Dialog. This could be done with a constructor or even a set(..) function.

Another consideration would be if your logic determines that the dialog always works with the Active Document. In that case you could use the CFrameWnd::GetActiveDocument() function.

The same logic would apply to obtaining the View object.
