Add treeview node "manually" as string with PathSeparator as divider in the string

[Mikael Jansson]

Hi,
Is it possible to add a treenode to a treeview by using a string that has
the PathSeparator as divider in the string?
hereis a psedocode (maybe stupid format or coding but I hope you understand
what I mean)

treeview.pathSeparator = "."
[treeview add node] = "1.2.6.1.2.2.4.4.2.1"
[treeview add node] = "1.2.6.2.1.2.4.4.2.1"
"The new node is separated into the tree as this example

1 --
I--2
I--6
I--1
I--2
I--1
... ... ... ... ...and so on

kind regards

/ Mikael

Hi Mikael,

Thanks for your post.

Based on my experience, Winform TreeView does not have this as a build-in
function. If you really want to get this function, we have to implement it
ourselves.

Normally, we should inherit from TreeView control, then create a new string
collection property which accept for a collection of strings. For each
string, we can use PathSeparator property to parse the input string
representation. After parsing, we can dynamically add each node into the
TreeView without based on your request.

Additionally, based on your logic, if 2 string node properties have the
same number(string) in the same level(like 1, 2 or 6 in the 2 strings you
provided), you will only create the first one as TreeNode, the second just
reuse the first TreeNode, yes? If it is true, how can we explicit want 2
TreeNodes with the same name in the same level? For example, we want the
structure like this:
1-
|-2
|-6
|-2
.....

How can we get this done? I think our parsing code should resolve this
different meanings scenario.

Hope this helps. Thanks
