CListCtrl InsertItem Error

I have a structure of the following

Code:

---

typedef struct
{
        CString m_csKeyPressed;
        CString m_csCircleColor;
        CString m_csMouseX;
        CString m_csMouseY;
}CircleParameters;

---

All the data members in the struct are the item and subitems that will be entered subsequently.

I want to be able to insert the item using

Code:

---

CircleParameters param;
param.m_csKeyPressed = "Test";
param.m_csCircleColor= "Test";
param.m_csMouseX= "Test";
param.m_csMouseY= "Test";

m_ListCtrl.InsertItem((LVITEM*)&param);

---

but it does not work. instead, if I do something like

Code:

---

m_ListCtrl.InsertItem(m_nCircleCount,param.m_csKeyPressed);
m_ListCtrl.SetItemText(m_nCircleCount,1,param.m_csCircleColor);
m_ListCtrl.SetItemText(m_nCircleCount,2,param.m_csMouseX);
m_ListCtrl.SetItemText(m_nCircleCount,3,param.m_csMouseY);

---

It works.

What am I doing wrong here?

The following won't work because param isn't an LVITEM pointer.

Code:

---

CircleParameters param;
param.m_csKeyPressed = "Test";
param.m_csCircleColor= "Test";
param.m_csMouseX= "Test";
param.m_csMouseY= "Test";

m_ListCtrl.InsertItem((LVITEM*)&param);

The way you are doing it is fine or you can use a virtual list control and handle the OnDispInfo message.
