Message Map Question

[Kalisto]

Afternoon. I have an Event handler which I want to call the function OnBnClickedBuildFile()

I want this function to be able to return a Bool value to indicate whether it has succeeded or not.

afx_message void OnBnClickedBuildfile
to
afx_message bool OnBnClickedBuildfile

But when I try to compile, I get an error "C2440 Static Cast", and it highlights the line below as the source of the error

ON_BN_CLICKED(IDC_BUILDFILE, OnBnClickedBuildfile)

I assume it is possible to do what I am trying, so what do I need to change to get this to work ?

TIA,

K

But its a response to a message! Whoever sent the message isn't expecting any return value, and wouldn't know what to do with it anyway.

You would more likely have to do some on-failure handling in the OnBnClickedBuildfile itself.

OK, thanks.
I was trying to be lazy, but now I guess I can't be.

Cheers,

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Alas.
