Trying to add a dialog in acrobat sdk projects using Vc++/c++

Question

Hi Team,
I'm using Acrobat Adobe Dc Samples Basic Plugin project, I enabled another submenu under Acrobat sdk.
So, whenever i'm clicking that submenu the action enabled in that function i wrote code for Dialog purpose.
Way One: Inside function:I wrote modal dialog code from Acrobat adobe pulgins pdf document:code:HWND CapturehWnd, hParent, hWnd;// nRetVal;HINSTANCE gHINSTANCE;CapturehWnd = GetCapture();if (CapturehWnd != NULL)ReleaseCapture();hParent = WinAppGetModalParent(AVAppGetActiveDoc());int nRetVal = DialogBoxA(gHINSTANCE, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_DIALOG1), hParent,AboutDlgProc);if (CapturehWnd != NULL)SetCapture(CapturehWnd);static AVWindow sAVWin;//.....// hWnd is the window handle of the dialog box windowHWND hWnd1;sAVWin = AVWindowNewFromPlatformThing(AVWLmodal, 0, NULL,gExtensionID,0);AVAppBeginModal(sAVWin);AVAppEndModal();AVWindowDestroy(sAVWin);
Way Two: Inside function:
I added Dialog resource and created the class from Cdialog
I used mfc code for dialog like:
Mydialog obj; //Mydialog is the dialog classobj.domodal;//domodal doesnt called
Runtime Exception:afxwin1.inl line 24
Note: I refered all the sites and implemented based on suggetions.
Kindly support to me.
If any need please feel reach out me[Edit: Personal information removed by Mod]

> I reviewd all samples in sdk, there is no dialog implementation.

Look at the sample "wxPlugin".

Using win32 this senario working:

Hi,

In your menu function use this:

You can defin HINSTANCE gHINSTANCE;

int nRetVal = DialogBoxParam(gHINSTANCE, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_DIALOG1),NULL,DialogProc,0);

need to call dialgproc function, in dialog proc function use:

switch (uMsg)
{
case WM_INITDIALOG:
//CenterDialog(hDlg);
return TRUE;
case WM_COMMAND:
switch (LOWORD(wParam))
{
case IDC_BUTTON1:

AfxMessageBox("button clicked");
case IDOK:
EndDialog(hDlg, IDOK);
break;
case IDCANCEL:
//SendMessage(hDlg, WM_CLOSE, 0, 0);
EndDialog(hDlg, IDCANCEL);
//return TRUE;
break;
}
break;

Look for dialog samples in the SDK. You cannot use code written for an EXE. One critical difference is that DialogBoxA will look for the dialog resource in the current module. At all times the current module is Acrobat.exe, NOT your plug-in. Other API calls are needed too.
