Comments

You can destroy the ImageListControl window using the Windows function DestroyWindow.

When the ImageList Control DLL loads, it registers a window class. The name for the ImageListControl window is:

#define LTIMGLISTCLASS TEXT("LEADIMGLIST")

You can use this class name to create an ImageList Control in your application's resource file (.RC). If you specify an ID when creating the control, you can use the Windows function GetDlgItem to get the window handle of the ImageListControl.

Note: In WIN32 versions, the window is created with the WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE style by default. To change this, you can use the Windows function SetWindowLong.

Note: The ImageList Control Window Class allocates 8 bytes of user data. The first 4 bytes are reserved, but the second 4 bytes can be used by your application. Use SetWindowLong to set these values.
