The TVM_GETITEM message retrieves some or all of a tree-view item's attributes. You can send this message explicitly or by using the TreeView_GetItem macro.

TVM_GETITEM

wParam = 0;

lParam = (LPARAM) (TV_ITEM FAR*) pitem;

Parameters
pitem
Pointer to a TV_ITEM structure that specifies the information to retrieve and receives information about the item. When the message is sent, the hItem member identifies the item to retrieve information about and the mask member specifies the attributes to retrieve.

If mask specifies the TVIF_TEXT value, the pszText member must contain the pointer to the buffer that receives the item text and the cchTextMax member must specify the size of the buffer.

If mask specifies the TVIF_STATE value, the stateMask member indicates which item states are to be returned.

Return Values
Returns TRUE if successful or FALSE otherwise.
