Item Labels

You typically specify the text of an item's label when adding the item to the tree-view control. The TVM_INSERTITEM message includes a TV_ITEM structure that defines the item's properties, including a string containing the text of the label.

A tree-view control allocates memory for storing each item; the text of the item labels takes up a significant portion of this memory. If your application maintains a copy of the strings in the tree-view control, you can decrease the memory requirements of the control by specifying the LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK value in the pszText member of TV_ITEM instead of passing actual strings to the tree view. Using LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK causes the tree-view control to retrieve the text of an item's label from the parent window whenever the item needs to be redrawn. To retrieve the text, the tree-view control sends a TVN_GETDISPINFO notification message, which includes the address of a TV_DISPINFO structure. The parent window must fill the appropriate members of the included structure.

Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More »
