Thread: staticlink

I searched on google to find a way to add a staticlink to my project to add an email addy. The site I found was link.

I followed the instructions listed there on the link, but have an error. The error has to do with my member(m_staMailto) is created in the CAboutDlg() and when i compile it says :

m_staMailto undeclared identifier

The example on the link uses it in the main dlg app and not in the aboutdlg. Any ideas?

Found my first problem, I had misspelled m_staMailto.

Now I have another problem. In step 3) Create two CStaticLink members m_staURL1, m_staEmail using ClassWizard.

I only created one for email. Changed m_staEmail to m_staMailto. I added the DDX in the proper place.

Code:

class CAboutDlg : public CDialog
{
        public:
	CAboutDlg();

// Dialog Data
	//{{AFX_DATA(CAboutDlg)
	enum { IDD = IDD_ABOUTBOX };
	CAboutDlg*	CStaticLink;
	//}}AFX_DATA

	// ClassWizard generated virtual function overrides
	//{{AFX_VIRTUAL(CAboutDlg)
	protected:
	virtual void DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX);    // DDX/DDV support
	//}}AFX_VIRTUAL

// Implementation
protected:
	//{{AFX_MSG(CAboutDlg)
	//}}AFX_MSG
	DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP()
private:
	CStaticLink m_staMailto;
};

But when I compile it says: 'CAboutDlg::CStaticLink':member from enclosing class is not a type name, static, or enumerator

Any ideas on step 3)?
