Hi!

The class BaseBitmapLink and BaseLink returns NULL if the object is not alive when deleted. I have a hook in ToolData which returns a SubDialog in 'AllocSubDialog' where Cinema 4D takes the ownership.

Is a class avaible which returns NULL if the Dialog was deleted?

Cheers,

Shawni

Sure, I wanted to write, but I forgot in hectic. I wrote my own class like BaseLink, BaseBitmapLink.

So this is my class which should return NULL if the dialog is not alive.

For example:

The dialog sets all members of DialogClassLinks to NULL which are connected to 'this'. I don't know if its the best way, but for me it works. If you hae any questions, critics or comments, please let me know.
