How to add CEikTextListBox to the application default Container ??

[fnnokia]

Hi,

When creating the project, I chose the "GUI Application with UI Designer" and "An empty container", the name for empty container is "CTestAppContainer"

Now I want dynamically adding "CEikTextListBox" into that "CTestAppContainer", but don't know how to do it, please help to give me a guide or some examples.

Below code is for testing, but don't work,
The iTestAppContainer still shows nothing after executed the code.

/** 
 * Handle the selected event.
 * @param aCommand the command id invoked
 * @return ETrue if the command was handled, EFalse if not
 */
TBool CTestAppContainerView::HandleTestMenuItemSelectedL( TInt aCommand )
	{
	// Create CEikTextListBox instance, list
	CEikTextListBox* list = new (ELeave) CAknSinglePopupMenuStyleListBox;

	// Initialize listbox.
	list->ConstructL(iTestAppContainer, CEikListBox::ELeftDownInViewRect);

	list->CreateScrollBarFrameL(ETrue);
	list->ScrollBarFrame()->SetScrollBarVisibilityL(CEikScrollBarFrame::EAuto,
			CEikScrollBarFrame::EAuto);
	MDesCArray* textArray = list->Model()->ItemTextArray();
	CDesCArray* itemList = static_cast<CDesCArray*> (textArray);

	// Set listitems.
	list->Model()->SetOwnershipType(ELbmOwnsItemArray);

	for (TInt i = 0; i < 5; i++)
		{
		itemList->AppendL(_L("123456"));
		list->HandleItemAdditionL();
		iTestAppContainer->DrawNow();
		}

        iTestAppContainer->DrawNow();
	
	return ETrue;
	}

Please notice that "iTestAppContainer" is defined in the CTestAppContainerView

private:
	// [[[ begin generated region: do not modify [Generated Instance Variables]
	CTestAppContainer* iTestAppContainer;
	// ]]] end generated region [Generated Instance Variables]

please check our wiki for example codes. In general you would be having all compound containers code inside the container, and in the view only handle the container, not any stuff that is inside the container. Also the drawing would also be handled inside the container.

Do you mean that it is impossible for adding control dynamically ??

Nope, but you should handle the control inside the window owning control you are thinking of using it in, it would make the actual handling do much easier.
