InaXplorer Control Set Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

In Visual Basic 5.0 and above:

To add the InaXplorer control to your project, select Project | Components... Select the InaXplorerList ActiveX Control Module, InaXplorerTree ActiveX Control Module and InaXplorerCombo ActiveX Control Module.

The InaXplorer controls will now be available in the Visual Basic Toolbox. Select some InaXplorer control from the Toolbox and insert it into a form as usual.

In Visual C++ 5.0 and above:

To add the InaXplorer control to your project, select Project | Add To Project | Components and Controls... In Registered ActiveX Controls folder select all InaXplorer Controls. The InaXplorer control wrapper classes will be added to your project.

To insert an InaXplorer control in an application window derived from CWnd, implement a WM CREATE message handler in your application window. Inside this function, create an InaXplorer control as a child of your window by calling the Create method of the InaXplorer control wrapper class.

To insert an InaXplorer control in a dialog, choose InaXplorer control from the Control toolbar and select the destination in the dialog where the control is to be placed. You can also click the right mouse button in the dialog. Choose Insert ActiveX control... from the popup-menu and then select InaXplorer Control. The InaXplorer control is inserted into your dialog.

Chances are you are using InaXplorer controls in a CView derived class. You must pass the first line of text from the license file when you create the control.

m_inaXplorerWindow.CreateControl( __uuidof(InaXplorer::InaXplorerControl), 0, WS_VISIBLE, CRect(0,0,100,100), this, ID, 0, FALSE, L"first line of text from license file"))

static const CString strLicenseKey = "first line of text from license file";
BSTR bstrLicenseKey = strLicenseKey.AllocSysString();
BOOL bRet = m_wndXplore.Create(NULL, NULL, CRect(0, 0, 100, 100), this, ID, NULL, FALSE, bstrLicenseKey);
SysFreeString(bstrLicenseKey);
