Save items of UltraListView

While I'm at it, how do I sort the items ?? Frustration, thy name is Infragistics

I found this not so difficult to find out. It did cost some time, yes. Use the infragisticssite, google, the classbrowser and your imagination.

The code snippets could help you:

using Infragistics.Win.UltraWinListView.*

using System.Drawing.* from assembly.

define private variable hImageFolderOpen      as Image                         no-undo.

create images in this way:

hImageFolderOpen   = cast(new Bitmap(search('ofold.ico')), Image)

      define variable hItem               as UltraListViewItem          no-undo.

      DEFINE VARIABLE SubItemColumn       AS UltraListViewSubItemColumn NO-UNDO.

      DEFINE VARIABLE SubItem             AS UltraListViewSubItem       extent 2 NO-UNDO.

I have a listview with one 'MainColumn' and two 'SubItemColumns'

            assign UltraListView:MainColumn:Text  = "Caption"

                   listview:MainColumn:Width = 100

                   SubItemColumn             = NEW UltraListViewSubItemColumn()

                   SubItemColumn:Width       = 300                            

                   SubItemColumn:Text        = "Action".

            UltraListView:SubItemColumns:Add(SubItemColumn).

            assign SubItemColumn            = NEW UltraListViewSubItemColumn()

                   SubItemColumn:Width      = 200                            

                   SubItemColumn:Text       = "Menutype".

            UltraListView:SubItemColumns:Add(SubItemColumn).

Now add items and subitems:

        for each

            by OrderField

            on error undo, throw:

            assign 

                subItem[1]                = new UltraListViewSubItem()

                subItem[1]:Value          = some text

                subItem[2]                = new UltraListViewSubItem()

                subItem[2]:Value          = some other text               

                hItem                     = new UltraListViewItem(hObject, SubItem)

                hItem:Value               = some Caption

                hItem:Appearance:Image    = hImageControl

                hItem:Key                 = some unique key

            listview:Items:add(hItem).

         end.

Thanks Stefan ,

What I was really after was a method to serialise the data, rather

than running through each item and adding to a char list (much like

WRITE-JSON on a temp-table)

It seems as if there aren't any.

I did, and discounted it because I thought that it contained all the

layout and settings for the control - but on close inspection of the

xml file, it seems to also include the actual items themselves

You normally implement this by wrapping UltraListView and inheriting from ISerializable, but the implementation requires attirbute which is not supported by OE Architect.
