Switching from ListView to VirtualStringTree
- by Jeff
Hey S.O!
I am trying to build my projects with a VirtualStringTree rather than a Listview, because of the vast speed difference. The thing is, even after looking thru the demo's, I just can't figure out exactly how I would use it as a ListView. Like, adding, deleting, and basically just working with ListView items is so easy, but when I look at the VT, it gets almost too complicated.
All I am looking for, is a VT that looks like a ListView, with subitems etc.
Here are some routines using the ListView, that I would like to use with VT (This is just a pseudo example:
procedure Add;
begin
with ListView.Items.Add do
Begin
Caption := EditCaption.Text;
SubItems.Add(EditSubItem.Text):
End;
end;
Procedure ReadItem(I : Integer);
begin
ShowMessage(ListView.Items[I].Caption);
ShowMessage(ListView.Items[I].SubItems[0]);
end;
Of course, also the Delete function, but since thats like 1 line, I didnt bother :P
Could anyone maybe translate the above examples into using a ListView style VT?
Thanks!
