Hi Timo,
one more little wish
the ListViewItems dont have a Key(String)?, so I looked
for something else and missed the Tag-Property for Items
and Columns .
Would this possibile?
And a question at the moment this wonderfull Control is in Beta-State,
do you have an Idea about the Date for the first NonBeta-Release?
regards
alphi
Tag-Property
Re: Tag-Property
There's an ItemData property and a ColumnData property. They take integer values only, but if you really need to store data of other types, you could store this in a local data structure and use the ColumnData/ItemData property to store the ID.alphi wrote:the ListViewItems dont have a Key(String)?, so I looked

As a replacement for the item key there's the item ID. In my apps I have some variables called LVWITEMID_*, which I use to store the item IDs after I inserted the items. Then I can use those variables to access the items.
A Tag property would have to be of type Variant. I couldn't use SysListView32's built-in features to store the data. Instead I would have to create and maintain a map which associates item indices with their Tag property data. This would be possible, but would slow down the control and increase the memory requirements.alphi wrote:Would this possibile?
As long as this feature isn't requested by some more persons, I won't implement it, because IMHO the disadvantages are bigger than the advantages.
You're right, it has been in beta stage for ages now. I plan to release a new beta this fall. After this beta, I'll implement the new Vista stuff.alphi wrote:And a question at the moment this wonderfull Control is in Beta-State,

The actual blocker for a non-beta release is the compatibility to the ShellBrowser component I'm working on. As long as I'm not sure, that I don't have to change the COM interface of ExplorerListView and ExplorerTreeView anymore to make it work with the ShellBrowser control, I won't release a non-beta version.
I hope we'll see non-beta releases by the end of this year, but don't bet on it.

Ok I think I understand your reasons for not implementing it.
I'll try to solve my problems in another way.
This would be a little for the columns,
a bit more thinking for the ListItems in Virtual Mode...
And I will waiting for the NonBeta Release
