Tree-View Control

I'm developing a simple Window application which tries to use Tree-View Control (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...w/treeview.asp).

The main routines are (I don't write the full code because it would make the post a little bit unreadable):

Code:

hwndDialog = CreateDialog(GetModuleHandle(NULL), "DIALOG_0", hwnd, dialogProc);
CreateATreeView(hwndDialog, "");
...
...
HWND CreateATreeView(HWND hwndParent, LPSTR lpszFileName)
{
    RECT rcClient;
    HWND hwndTreeView;
    
    InitCommonControls();
    GetClientRect(hwndParent, &rcClient);

    hwndTreeView = CreateWindowEx(
        0,
        WC_TREEVIEW,
        "Tree View",
        WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD | WS_BORDER | TVS_HASLINES, 
        0, 
        0, 
        rcClient.right, 
        rcClient.bottom,
        hwndParent, 
        (HMENU)ID_TREEVIEW, 
        hInstance, 
        NULL);
    
    return hwndTreeView;   
}    

BOOL InitTreeViewImageLists(HWND hwndTreeView)
{
    HIMAGELIST himl;
    HICON hIcon;
    
    if ((himl = ImageList_Create(32, 32, FALSE, 2, 0)) == NULL) 
    return FALSE; 
    
    hIcon = LoadIcon(NULL, "folder.ico");
    if (hIcon==NULL) return FALSE;
    ImageList_AddIcon(himl, hIcon);
    
    hIcon = LoadIcon(NULL, "folder_closed.ico");
    if (hIcon==NULL) return FALSE;
    ImageList_AddIcon(himl, hIcon);

    TreeView_SetImageList(hwndTreeView, himl, TVSIL_NORMAL);
    
    return TRUE;
}

I'm using Dev-C++ 5.0 beta 9 (4.9.9.0) with Mingw/GCC 3.3.1.

After including commctrl.h I tried to build de proyect and I got the following error:

Code:

Somehow I concluded (I don't remember why, because I spent a lot of time trying and trying different things and reading tutorials and articles) that I had to add the comctl32.lib to the proyect. Was I right? I don't know. The first problem was that I had no idea about where I could find comctl32.lib. I searched my PC, just for trying, and since I got installed Microsoft Platform SDK (http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/...sdk/sdkupdate/), I found out that comctl32.lib was in the "\Microsoft SDK\Lib" folder.

After including comctl32.lib to my proyect I got the following errors:

Code:

Then I said to myself that maybe I had to use the CommCtrl.h within the Platform SDK so I changed:

Code:

#include <commctrl.h>

and I wrote:
[code]#include "..\..\Archivos de programa\Microsoft SDK\include\CommCtrl.h"[code]
...and I got more and more errors:

What am I missing? Can't Tree-View control be used?

As you can see by the length of my post, I'm going a little bit crazy. Any help would be wellcomed. Thanks in advance.

If using MinGW(devcpp) then use its headers and libs; don't mix and match from different compilers as you'll almost certainly run into problems. For common controls, something like:

Code:

#if defined __MINGW_H
#define _WIN32_IE 0x0400
#endif
#include <commctrl.h>

ensures that most common controls and their associated structs and macros are available for use with MinGW (devcpp). You must also link with libcomctl32.a (-lcomctl32).
