L_UseContainerControl

Summary

Dynamically loads the DLL that provides support for the LTCONTAINERCLASS registered class.

Syntax

#include "ltivw.h"

L_LTIVW_API L_VOID L_UseContainerControl(L_VOID)

Parameters

HDISPCONTAINER hCon

Handle to the container

Returns

None.

Comments

The LTCONTAINERCLASS registered class uses messages rather than function calls. Therefore, the required dynamic link library (LTIVW15u.dll) is not loaded automatically. Therefore, the toolkit provides this dummy function in the DLL, which you can call before using the registered class messages.

Required DLLs and Libraries

LTIVW
For a listing of the exact DLLs and Libraries needed, based on the toolkit version, refer to Files To Be Included With Your Application.

Example

This function creates a container by loading the dlls and then create a window with a class name LTCONTAINERCLASS

L_INT UseContainerControlExample(HDISPCONTAINER hCon,HWND hWnd,HWND hCtl) 
{ 
   /* create the container control */ 
   L_UseContainerControl(); /* make sure dll is loaded */ 
   hCtl = CreateWindow(LTCONTAINERCLASS,  
                       TEXT(""), 
                       WS_CHILD | WS_BORDER,  
                       10,  
                       10,  
                       250,  
                       250,  
                       hWnd,  
                       NULL,  
                       (HINSTANCE)L_GETWINDOWLONGPTR(hWnd, GWLP_HINSTANCE),  
                       NULL);  
   ShowWindow (hCtl, SW_SHOW);  
 
   // Get the handle.  
   hCon = L_DispContainerGetHandle (hCtl);  
   return SUCCESS;
