Chapter 21: Tree and List Controls Visual C++ and MFC Fundamentals

Figure 59: A Newly added Tree Control.................................................................................

Alternatively, to programmatically create a tree list, declare a variable or a pointer to

CTreeCtrl. To initialize the control, call its Create() method. Here is an example:

private:

CTreeCtrl *TreeSoft;

};

CControlsDlg::CControlsDlg(CWnd* pParent /*=NULL*/)

: CDialog(CControlsDlg::IDD, pParent)

{

//{{AFX_DATA_INIT(CControlsDlg)

// NOTE: the ClassWizard will add member initialization here

//}}AFX_DATA_INIT

m_hIcon = AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDR_MAINFRAME);

TreeSoft = new CTreeCtrl;

}

CControlsDlg::~CControlsDlg()

{

delete TreeSoft;

}

BOOL CControlsDlg::OnInitDialog()

{

CDialog::OnInitDialog();

SetIcon(m_hIcon, TRUE); // Set big icon

SetIcon(m_hIcon, FALSE); // Set small icon

// TODO: Add extra initialization here

TreeSoft->Create(WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_BORDER | WS_TABSTOP,

CRect(10, 10, 240, 280), this, 0x1221);

return TRUE; // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control

}

Practical Learning: Creating a Tree List
