Hi Eric,
Very good article. But in this article you have just provided the dll file and other files. Can you please mention complete steps to create this DLL file.
Thanks,

Hi Erik, I looked through the existing comments and found a similar question but no answer. Do you have any tips on getting this to work with Vis Studio 2008?

But I need to set an accelerator key to load my desk band window Like for History window (Ctrl+H). I wish to add something like Alt+L to load my deskband window. Searched lot for that and didnt find any help.
Is it possible

I have a question regarding deskbands.
When a user click on a deskband menuitem (e.g. Quick Launch) under the
Toolbars menu, the menuitem is supposed to be checked.
However, I've a simple deskband application which does not behave this way.
Instead, a new menuitem is created under the Toolbars menu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I'm having the same problem. When selecting the tool band from the toolbars menu to turn it on, an additional toolband menu item is added to the toolbars menu. The new duplicate item is checked indicating that the toolband is on, but the original one is unchecked. If I click on the un-checked one, I get an additional toolband added to the task bar and a third duplicate menu item is added, etc, etc.

Would this template still work in more current development environments such as Visual Studio 2003, 2005, or the new 2008?

No I havne't gotten any email from you so not sure which email address you sent your request to. Also I can't email you as you have not confirmed your email address with codeproject.com yet.

Dear Erik:
Thanks for your reply!
I have send a email to your ErikT@RadBytes.com from my gmail address: liushuai06@gmail.com.
But the google mail system has refused my email,and it says:
"Delivery to the following recipient has been delayed:
ErikT@RadBytes.com
Message will be retried for 2 more day(s)
Technical details of temporary failure:
TEMP_FAILURE: Could not initiate SMTP conversation with any hosts:
[radbytes.com. (10): Connection refused]
"
So,I wonder if I had a mistake in your mail address "ErikT@RadBytes.com"?
Thanks again!

I let the radbytes.com domain lapse; I haven't retained it for a couple years now. You can email me through codeproject.

Dear Erik:
I am a master candidate from Tsinghua University.
Recently, I learn "Internet Explorer Toolbar(Deskband) Tutorial" from
the site of codeproject which link is
"http://www.codeproject.com/atl/ietoolbartutorial.asp ".
It is so useful that attracts my interest greatly.
Thanks very much for your hard work.
Currently, I am working in a team and my job is developing an IE
plugin.And I find that in my project, I could apply the RBDeskBand
ATL Object Wizard and CWindowImpl ATL Object Wizard to generate the
codes for this project. However, I do not know whether this tool could
be applied for the commercial purpose. So I send this mail to you to
get your answer.
Thanks very much for your kindness and give my best wishes to you!
Waiting for your kind reply!

Thanks, many have found the article and other tutorials useful. As for your question, I don't have any restrictions on commerical use. It's a tool, the output of which is your own. There are no restrictions for commercial use, but I wouldn't mind knowing what commercial products have used the tools. I only know of one commercial product to date.

Hi,
I'm in the process of creating a addon for IE7, which includes a toolbar and an info band.
So far it works in that they both display when selected, but the info bands does not appear with the standard IE7 info bands (Favorites/History/RSS), but actually is displayed underneath.
Is there anyway of getting my info band to appear alongside the standard ones with its own button alongsite the standard ones?
Cheers,
David Claughton.

I'll have to look into this. Are you sure you are using the correct CATID? There also might be a new CATID specific to IE7 but am unsure. I'll see what I can find out.
Cheers,

After compiling and registering the dll (w/ VC 2005, after making the necessary tweaks), I loaded the toolbar and all worked well. But now I want to make a change and it will not let me compile because the dll is in use. This is the case even when I unload the toolbar. Is there any way to get Explorer.exe to release the dll so I can recompile it without having to reboot everytime?

Kill the task.

There is no task for my dll. It is loaded into the Windows Explorer task. Is that the task you mean for me to kill? What is the ramifications of killing it?
|
|
|
|
|
|

Only ramifications are the half backed tray apps you have running that dont' repopulate themselves when the shell restarts. and you can always restart explorer.exe from the taskman at any time. The other alternative is to write a 2 part system. where you have a DLL that's a loader that you build in functionality to unload the "functionality" dll so that you can build that. where you dont' rebuild the loader. then later when you are done you roll it in the build into 1 dll. If you dont' want to do that. Then change the CATID of your deskband to be an IE one and only change it to be an explorer CATID when you are really ready to test it in the shell.
Cheers,
-Erik

Hi Erik Thompson,
It's very nice to know this great job.
But I am using the VS2005.
Just want to know when will you have the coding for VS2005 in this great job.
I am really thanks for your help and reply . So look forwarding your job.

For VS2005 someone have an idea, how we have a ATL Object Wizard?
Thks in Advance
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You cannot use this wizard in VS2005. I have said previously I'd update it but I just haven't gotten around to it. You can install the old VS6 create the code using the wizard and then upgrade the project using vs2005 as an alternative.
Cheers,
-Erik

It would be immensely useful if you could update the wizard for ATL7-8 and VS2005-VS2008, and post the update on Code Project ( or some other web page ). Very few C++ developers use VC6 anymore, or even have it around.
