It is common use to associate user data with a tree item.
If it is a pointer to some class the function that gracefully
releases all memory is needed. The one is given below. It takes
as an argument a handle of a tree item and deletes all CSomeXObjets
(user objects) in all subitems. If You want to release the whole
tree call: ReleaseTreeItem( TVI_ROOT );
void CTreeCtrlX::ReleaseTreeItem(const HTREEITEM hti)
{
if(hti == NULL)
return;
HTREEITEM hti_ch = GetChildItem( hti );
while( hti_ch != NULL )
{
CSomeXObjets* pObject = ( CSomeXObjets* )GetItemData( hti_ch );
delete pObject;
ReleaseTreeItem( hti_ch );
hti_ch = GetNextSiblingItem( hti_ch );
} //whil
}; //ReleaseTreeIte
