DOCUMENT/VIEW ARCHITECTURE SERIALIZATION IN A SINGLE DOUCUMENT INTERFACE USING VC++

OBJECTIVE :
To implement document/view architecture and serialization in single document interface.
PROCEDURE:
1. Run MFC Appwizard to generate c:\JKL
2. Select single document interface in step1 of AppWizard.
3. In step 3 deselect the Activex controls.
4. In step 4.deselect the clocking tool bars and printing and print preview.
5. Rest all select the default settings.
6. The wizard will create classes like CSDIDoc, CSDIApp, CSDIView and CMainFrame.
7. Create a generic class mytext which is derived from the base class CObject by right clicking on the SDI classes in the class view and selecting new class.
8. In the new class mytext the constructor and destructor will be created.
9. Create the variables in mytext.h
private:
CString textfacename;
COLORREF textcolor;
CPoint textpoint;
int textsize;
public:
mytext(CPoint point,CString facename,int size,COLORREF color);
void drawtext(CDC *p);
void Serialize(CArchive(&ar));
10. In mytext.cpp type the definition of the constructor with 4 arguments as follows.
mytext::mytext(CPoint point,CString facename,int size,COLORREF color)
{
textpoint=point;
textfacename=facename;
textsize=size;
textcolor=color;
}
11. Again in mytext.cpp type the following definition for the member function drawtext as
void mytext::drawtext(CDC *p)
{
CFont myfont;
myfont.CreatePointFont(textsize,textfacename,p);
p->SelectObject(myfont);
p->SetTextColor(textcolor);
p->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);
p->TextOut(textpoint.x,textpoint.y,"hello world");
}
12. Using class wizard on the CSDI view class map the message WM_BUTTONDOWN to the object CSDIView.on the onLButtonDown handler add the following text inSDIView.cpp
void CJKLView::OnLButtonDown(UINT nFlags, CPoint point)
{
CClientDC dc(this);
CString facename[9]={"Arial","Impact","Verdana","Termainal","ComicSans MS"};
COLORREF color=RGB(0,0,225);
CString face=facename[rand()%5];
int size=100;
CFont myfont;
myfont.CreatePointFont(size,face,&dc);
dc.SelectObject(myfont);
dc.SetTextColor(color);
dc.SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);
dc.TextOut(point.x,point.y,"hello world");
((CJKLDoc*)GetDocument())->addtext(point,face,size,color);
CView::OnLButtonDown(nFlags, point);
}
13. In SDIDoc.h include the following text
#include "mytext.h"
public: // Operations
CObArray textarr;
mytext* addtext(CPoint point,CString facename,int size,COLORREF color)
{
mytext *text;
text=new mytext(point,facename,size,color);
textarr,addtext;
SetModifiedFlag();
return text;
}
14. Edit the OnDraw function of SDIView.cpp as follows
void CJKLView::OnDraw(CDC* pDC)
{
CJKLDoc* pDoc = GetDocument();
ASSERT_VALID(pDoc);
int count=pDoc->textarr.GetSize();
if(count)
{
for(int i=0;i<count;i++)
((mytext*)pDoc->textarr[i])->drawtext(pDC);
}
}
15. In SDIDoc.cpp type the text in the function
void CJKLDoc::Serialize(CArchive& ar)
{
textarr.Serialize(ar);
/*if (ar.IsStoring())
{
}
else
{
}*/
}
16. In mytext.CPP type the definition for the serialize function as follows
void mytext::Serialize(CArchive(&ar))
{
CObject::Serialize(ar);
if(ar.IsStoring())
ar<<textpoint<<textfacename<<textsize<<textcolor;
else
ar>>textpoint>>textfacename>>textsize>>textcolor;
}
17. To make the serialization really work DECLARE_SERIAL in the mytext.h file this
private:
DECLARE_SERIAL(mytext);
18. Declare IMPLEMENT_SERIAL in the mytext.cpp file next to #ifdef & #endif.
IMPLEMENT_SERIAL(mytext,CObject,1);
19. Run and test the application.
