FIX: C2248 Error When Calling CView::OnInitialUpdate()

RESOLUTION

• Upgrade to Visual C++ version 1.5. MFC version 2.5 supplied with Visual C++ version 1.5 for Windows declares the OnInitialUpdate() function as a public member of the CView class. -or-
  
  
• Use the CWnd::SendMessage function to send a WM_INITIALUPDATE message to the view. For example:

        class CAnotherClass
        {
            void MemberFunction()
            {
                CDerivedView * pView = new CDerivedView;
  
                if( pView != NULL )
                    pView->SendMessage(WM_INITIALUPDATE);
            }
        };
  						

  -or-
  
  
• Derive from CView and declare the class where OnInitialUpdate() is being called from as a friend. For example:

        class CDerivedView : public CView
        {
            friend class CAnotherClass;
  
         public:
             virtual void OnDraw(CDC* pDC);
         };
  						

  -or-
  
  
• Derive from CView and override the OnInitialUpdate() member function, making the override a public member of the derived class. For example:

        class CDerivedView : public CView
        {
        public:
            virtual void OnDraw(CDC* pDC);
            virtual void OnInitialUpdate(){ CView::OnInitialUpdate(); }
        };
