Hi,
 
When adding/removing items from a CXTEditListBox you get notifications in the form of LBN_XT_PRENEWITEM/LBN_XT_NEWITEM and LBN_XT_PREDELETEITEM/LBN_XT_DELETEITEM.
 
Let's say that you want to display a "Yes/No"-messagebox before deleting an item. Then what? There is no way to cancel the action.
 
Perhaps it would be a good idea to implement "pre"-messages for all actions (move up/down too) and check the return value. If TRUE, then cancel the action, otherwise perform it as usual.
 
As for a temporary solution, I guess the best would be to override CXTEditListBox::OnDeleteItem() etc?
 
Thanks!
/Chris

Problem that now these message implemented as WM_COMMAND - and MFC automatically will return 1 if they was handled.
 
EditListItem is virtual method, you can override it.
 
Thanks.

Hi,

Sorry, but EditListItem() is not virtual. I had to implement these functions to get the desired behavior:
 
OnEndLabelEdit()
OnNewItem()
OnDeleteItem()
OnMoveItemUp()
OnMoveItemDown()

Actually, that didn't work! When pressing <DEL> OnDeleteItem() is called directly, and since it too isn't virtual, my overrided function is not called.
 
CXTEditListBox::PreTranslateMessage()
... OnDeleteItem();
 
Argh :(
