How to add and remove tabs dynamically?

[slinx]

hi I need to randomly add and remove tabs in status pane's tab group dynamically. Say I have 3 tabs with tab ids (0,1,2) now i need to remove tab id 0.

void ChangeTabGroupState(TInt aDeleteId, TInt aNewActiveId)
{
	iTabGroup->DeleteTabL(aDeleteId);
	iTabGroup->SetActiveTabByIndex(aNewActiveId);		
}

how tab ids has to be reorganized for the purpose? if 0 is removed, will tab ids(1,2) be shifted to (0,1)? how to determine
the active tab id after deletion of a tab? thanks

Tabs have both index and id. Id stays whatever you set, index changes.

Thanks wizard_hu_. So if a tab with index 0 is removed from tab group indexes (0,1,2) , will remaining index (1,2) be reset to (0,1)? or how to manipluate index of tab group with frequent addition and remove? thanks

Yes, it behaves as an array, because it is backed by array. If you check CAknTabGroup in the header, it has a CArrayPtr<CAknTab>* iTabArray member.
