How to Enable/Disable toolbar buttons on the fly

Hi All
Is there anyway to enable/disable the toolbar buttons on the fly as like in
MFC which helps centralizing this process?Let's i have a toolbar button
ToolbarButtonSa ve
which can be enabled/disabled inside the Edit control TextChanged event
handler?I'm looking for a way which Toolbar can ask itself to enable/disable
its buttons as ON_UPDATE_COMMA ND_UI in MFC?

Hi,

To the best of my knowledge, no such way exists. You should manually update
the status of the buttons whenever appropriate.

Hi Dntc,

No, unfortunately there is noting even close to ON_UPDATE_COMMA ND_UI.

Take a look at this article
