I think, I have to start over from another direction... whoo... it's
complicated... One step of our code tries to retrieve the text of the
menu item by calling a function called "CMenu::GetMenuString". For all
TortoiseSVN items but the one for the popup menu, the strings returned
by this function are empty.
Another step of our code tries to retrieve the menu state by a function
called "CMenu::GetMenuState". The state returned is MF_OWNERDRAW
(MF_APPEND) but we don't know how to draw this item. We would draw it by
ourselves if we had got a valid item text from GetMenuString.
In just another step of our code we try to append the whole TortoiseSVN
popup menu to our menu by calling "CMenu::AppendMenu" with the handle
returned by an earlier call of "CMenu::Detach()". The handle returned by
Detach seems to be valid, but it appears to be unknown by the system
since trying to pop the menu up in the GUI results in an ASSERT_VALID
forcing our software to exit. Maybe this is depending on the OWNERDRAW
state.
Please excuse my english, I hope you are able to understand what I'm
talking about... The least we need is a valid menu text returned by
CMenu::GetMenuString or by IContextMenu::GetCommandString that will be
displayed to the user and valid handles for the popupmenuitems returned
by CMenu::Detach().
I would be very grateful for any kind of help. Thanks a lot.
Kind regards
