#include "ltaut.h"

L_LTAUT_API L_INT L_AutAddContainer(pAutomation, pContainer , pModeData)

Adds a new container to the automation list of containers.

Parameters

pAUTOMATIONHANDLE pAutomation

Pointer to an automation handle.

pCONTAINERHANDLE pContainer

Pointer to a container handle.

L_VOID * pModeData

Pointer to a structure that contains information about the mode used to create the specified automation handle. If the automation handle was created using AUTOMATION_MODE_VECTOR, pModeData_should point to a VECTORHANDLE structure. If the automation handle was created using AUTOMATION_MODE_PAINT, pModeData should point to a CONTAINERPAINTDATA structure.

Returns

Comments

For an SDI application, usually a single container for the current SDI window will be added. For an MDI application, usually a new container will be added every time a new MDI child window is created.

The newly added container will become the active automation container.

Adding a new container will provide all automation functionality to the window that owns the newly added container.

To remove a container from the automation list of containers, call L_AutRemoveContainer.
