CListView.SetItemCountmethod

Causes the list-view control to allocate memory for the specified number of items.

WindowsmethodCListView.incdocumented

Syntax

FUNCTION SetItemCount (BYVAL hListView AS HWND, BYVAL cItems AS LONG) AS LRESULT

Parameters

NameDescription
hListViewHandle to the ListView control.
cItemsThe number of items that the list-view control will contain.

Return value

Returns nonzero if successful, or zero otherwise.

Description

Causes the list-view control to allocate memory for the specified number of items.

Remarks

If the list-view control was created without the LVS_OWNERDATA style, this method causes the control to allocate its internal data structures for the specified number of items. This prevents the control from having to allocate the data structures every time an item is added.

If the list-view control was created with the LVS_OWNERDATA style (a virtual list view), the SetItemCountEx method should be used.
