Property Value

The Sorter property allows you to specify the object that performs the sorting of items in the RasterImageList. You can use the Sorter property in combination with the Sort method to perform custom sorting. For example, you could create a class (that implements the System.Collections.IComparer interface) to support custom sorting in the RasterImageList control.

To control the sort order, use the Sorting property.

By default the Sorting algorithm sorts items alphabetically based on the Text property of each list item.

Set the Sorter property to null (Nothing in Visual Basic) to fall back to the default sorter.

Note: Setting the value of the Sorter property causes the Sort method to be called automatically.

This example will create and populate a RasterImageList control with 20 items. It will use a custom System.Collections.IComparer that implements the Win32 StrCmpLogicalW API to sort the contents of the control. This example assumes that you have added the code to a Form and call the method created in the example from the constructor or another method on the form.
Note: This example will only run on Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server.
