I tried a resource viewing tool to peek at the resources in the compiled EXE.
What I see there are the bitmaps I added, with names the same as their resource
Name property values in the IDE (UCased as suggested).
So I have my resID values ("B" and "S" here) and I tried using them as in:
NSListView1.Icons.LoadResource , "B", 0
NSListView1.SmallIcons.LoadResource , "S", 0
NSListView1.ColumnHeaderIcons.LoadResource , "S", 0
Upon testing however I get:
"ListView - line 18, char 0 Failed to load the specified bitmap resource."
Just picking numbers at random I tried using 0 (failed) and then 1 as an
Integer resID. Using an Integer 1 "worked" in the sense there was no runtime
error, but the resulting display had monochrome messed up images for these
icons.
Note that the LoadBitmap() method (loading from a file) is working fine
however. I'm left with the assumptions that:
(1.) I'm still doing something wrong, or
(2.) The ListView's embedded NSBImageList objects don't work with their
LoadResource() method, or
(3.) LoadResource() requires an Integer resID and not a String, and I have no
way to assign an Integer using the IDE.
I've been using TechNote 11 and 12 as references.
So when you get the chance it would be helpful if you could track down the
proper syntax for this. There must be a working example someplace. Short-term
I'll go back to loading images from external .BMP files.
Thank you.
