README for CPPTBAR.ZIP 
 
 This source code shows how to create simple bitmap toolbars using the 
 technique shown in IBM distributed FRMSUB.ZIP but using the
 IBM User Interface Class Libraries supplied with C/Set++ 2.0 and 2.1

 The technique is fairly simple.

 1. Create a BITMAP Menu in your RC for the items that you want on the
    Toolbar.  The following is a simple demostration of Toolbar RC files


   BITMAP    201    tb1.bmp        /* MID_TB_1  */
   BITMAP    202    tb2.bmp        /* MID_TB_2  */

   MENU WND_BAR
    BEGIN
      MENUITEM  "#201",  MID_TB_1,  MIS_BITMAP
      MENUITEM  "#202",  MID_TB_2,  MIS_BITMAP
    END


  2. Create a derived class of IFrameWindow and ICommandHandler

   class ToolBar : public IFrameWindow,    //   Define ToolBar Class from
                   public ICommandHandler  //   IFrameWindow & ICommandHandler
   {
      public:
         ToolBar(unsigned long windowId);     
         Boolean command(ICommandEvent& cEvent);
   };                                      // End of Toolbar class definition

      
  3. Make sure that derive class above doesn't use defaultStyle, only thing
     that is necessary is menuBar style, if you defind it as defaultStyle
     you would get another TitleBar and the appearence is not desirable.


   ToolBar::ToolBar(unsigned long windowId)        
      :  IFrameWindow (                            
         IFrameWindow::menuBar,                  
         windowId)                                 
   {
      handleEventsFor(this);              //Set self as command event handler
      setFocus();                         //Set focus to main window
      show();                             //Set to show main window
   } /* end ToolBar :: ToolBar(...) */


   4.  Finally you need to add code to the FrameWindow that you are adding
       the Toolbar to. Thanks to IFrameWindows addExtension function this
       is really simple.


      myToolBar = new ToolBar(WND_BAR);
      addExtension(myToolBar,IFrameWindow::aboveClient, 40);         

      Note: I use size of 40 here for this demostration, I attempted to find
      a method of providing an automatic size determination of the bitmap..
      With more research, a more desirable technique for automatically 
      determining the size could be found.

I have included a simple example program that demostrates this technique.. It
requires IBM CSet++ compiler.. Basically I added a Toolbar similar to the one
provide in Frmsub.zip but I also extended it to include a Toolbar on the
right side of the Window.  I also allow you to remove and add the Toolbars 
back and forth on the window.

Alot of credit to this sample has to be giving to FRMSUB.ZIP, but it
worth while that its easy to make Toolbars using IBM Class Libraries
