Re: Why does AfxGetMainWnd returns nulls?

Hello all

I am new to MFC. I have a MFC shared dll, which will be intregarted into
another application. To give details abt the dll, it creates an widget
(having grid format). When I call this MFC dll from the exe, it will
generate
an object for me. Now prior to creating the object, I have a window that
pops
asking few info (like name,type,etc). I want to retrieve the handle to
this
window. I have the create button on this window, within whose code I do
the
following

IINT32 testClass::onCreate(...)
{
typedef long int jint;
CWnd* pWnd = AfxGetMainWnd();
jint hndl = (jint)pWnd->GetSafeHwnd();

}

But, I always receieve an null from AfxGetMainWnd(). and 0 from get
safehwnd(). I do not know exactly how to associate the CWnd to my class
"testClass".
