I want to do some processing when a particular dialog is opened but I am not able to find any way to get notification when that dialog is opened.
Is there any way to get notification in application for opening of a particular windows dialog?
The only available information about the dialog is its title and its unique.
The general solution is to use windows hooks, filter to WH_CBT, filter to WM_CREATE, or something like that, get the window text and see if it is the one of your interest.
One more important point: in hook you should use SetWindowLongPtr() to set window process to your own function, that will actually receive WM_CREATE event. In all calls this function should call the original window procedure.
