FIX: Undocking Toolbar May Disappear When Removed from Dockbar

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, rebuild the project with Visual C++ version 2.1. If that is not an option for you, you can work around the problem by modifying the WINFRM2.CPP MFC source file and rebuilding the appropriate MFC library.

NOTE: Microsoft recommends against rebuilding the MFC30(D).DLL (the MFC Shared DLL). MFC30(D).DLL is a common component of many MFC applications. Rebuilding MFC30(D).DLL runs the risk of breaking other applications that rely on this component. If you do rebuild MFC30(D).DLL, please rename the DLL.

Steps to fix WINFRM2.CPP Directly

1. Replace following line of code in CFrameWnd::CanDock():

         if (pDockBar->IsDockBar() &&
            (pDockBar->m_dwStyle & dwDockStyle & CBRS_ALIGN_ANY) &&
            (!pDockBar->m_bFloating ||
         (dwDockStyle & pDockBar->m_dwStyle & CBRS_FLOAT_MULTI)))
   						

   with this code:

         if (pDockBar->IsDockBar() && pDockBar->IsWindowVisible() &&
            (pDockBar->m_dwStyle & dwDockStyle & CBRS_ALIGN_ANY) &&
            (!pDockBar->m_bFloating ||
            (dwDockStyle & pDockBar->m_dwStyle & CBRS_FLOAT_MULTI)))
   						

2. Rebuild the MFC library according to the instructions in the ..\MSVC\MFC\SRC\README.TXT file.
