fundamentals of converting treeview to structure

[tarretarretarre]

Hi, i have searched but couldnt find any similar answer, as the title says: i cant figure out the fundamentals of converting a treeview hwnd with unkown children to an structure of any sort

i've looked at _GUICtrlTreeView_IsParent _GUICtrlTreeView_ChildCount, but i cant put the pieces together, could need some help with this one

 

From:

#1parent

  #1parent Child

  #1parent Child

    #1parent Child Child

 

To:

<parent>

 <child></child>

 <child></child>

   <child>

      <childOfChild></childOfChild>

   </child>

</parent>

I would like to get pointed at the right direction

This might point you in the right direction:

Essentially, the logic is

     Get TreeView Item Count

     For 1 to ItemCount

        Get Item Info

        Get Next Item

     Next

I'm not too sure how you want to handle the output formatting. For example...An item that is four levels deep...would you call that <childOfChildOfChild>?  Perhaps your tree only goes three levels deep and it's not an issue.  Either way, you can figure out how you want to format it.

tarretarretarre, Here here here is all what you need need need.

The key point is that the structure of a treeview is uniquely defined by the levels of the items. When you have figured that out, the rest is easy.

This code creates a more or less random treeview, and writes the structure to a disk file, TreeView.txt.

This code reads TreeView.txt, and recreates the treeview from the structure.
