BBjTree::insertExpandableNode

Description

Inserts an expandable child node into the BBjTree control.

Syntax

Return Value Method
void insertExpandableNode(int childID, int parentID, String text, int index)

Parameters

Parameter Description
childID Specifies the ID of the child node.
parentID Specifies the ID of the parent node.
text Specifies the label of the child node.
index Specifies the 0-based index of the parent child list in which the node will be inserted.

Return Value

None.

Remarks

The node will always appear as an expandable node, even if it has no children.

Each child node in the parent's list with an index greater or equal to the specific index is shifted upward to have an index one greater than the value it had previously.
