Public Methods

Name Description
CLinkCtrl::Create Creates a link control and attaches it to a CLinkCtrl object.
CLinkCtrl::CreateEx Creates a link control with extended styles and attaches it to a CLinkCtrl object.
CLinkCtrl::GetIdealHeight Retrieves the ideal height of the link control.
CLinkCtrl::GetIdealSize Calculates the preferred height of the link text for the current link control, depending on the specified width of the link.
CLinkCtrl::GetItem Retrieves the states and attributes of a link control item.
CLinkCtrl::GetItemID Retrieves the ID of a link control item.
CLinkCtrl::GetItemState Retrieves the state of the link control item.
CLinkCtrl::GetItemUrl Retrieves the URL represented by the link control item.
CLinkCtrl::HitTest Determines whether the user clicked the specified link.
CLinkCtrl::SetItem Sets the states and attributes of a link control item.

Remarks

A "link control" provides a convenient way to embed hypertext links in a window. The actual control is a window that renders marked-up text and launches appropriate applications when the user clicks an embedded link. Multiple links are supported within one control and can be accessed by a zero-based index.

This control (and therefore the CLinkCtrl class) is available only to programs running under Windows XP and later.

For more information, see SysLink Control in the Windows SDK.

CLinkCtrl::CLinkCtrl

Constructs a CLinkCtrl object.

CLinkCtrl();

CLinkCtrl::Create

Creates a link control and attaches it to a CLinkCtrl object.

virtual BOOL Create(
    LPCTSTR lpszLinkMarkup,   
    DWORD dwStyle,   
    const RECT& rect,   
    CWnd* pParentWnd,   
    UINT nID);

 
virtual BOOL Create(DWORD dwStyle,
    const RECT& rect,
    CWnd* pParentWnd,
    UINT nID);

Parameters

lpszLinkMarkup
Pointer to a zero-terminated string that contains the marked up text to display. For more information, see the section "Markup and Link Access" in the topic Overview of SysLink Controls in the MSDN Library.

dwStyle
Specifies the link control's style. Apply any combination of control styles. See Common Control Styles in the Windows SDK for more information.

rect
Specifies the link control's size and position. It can be either a CRect object or a RECT structure.

pParentWnd
Specifies the link control's parent window. It must not be NULL.

nID
Specifies the link control's ID.

Return Value

true if initialization was successful; otherwise false.

Remarks

You construct a CLinkCtrl object in two steps. First, call the constructor and then call Create, which creates the link control and attaches it to the CLinkCtrl object. If you want to use extended windows styles with your control, call CLinkCtrl::CreateEx instead of Create.

The second form of the Create method is deprecated. Use the first form that specifies the lpszLinkMarkup parameter.

Example

The following code example defines two variables, named m_Link1 and m_Link2, that are used to access two link controls.

   afx_msg void OnNMClickSyslink1(NMHDR *pNMHDR, LRESULT *pResult);
    afx_msg void OnNMClickSyslink2(NMHDR *pNMHDR, LRESULT *pResult);
    // Link variable associated with resource editor CLinkCtrl control.
    CLinkCtrl m_Link1;
    // Link variable associated with programmatic CLinkCtrl control.
    CLinkCtrl m_Link2;

Example

The following code example creates one link control based on the location of another link control. The resource loader creates the first link control when your application starts. When your application enters the OnInitDialog method, you create the second link control relative to the position of the first link control. Then you resize the second link control to fit the text that it displays.

  CRect rect1, rect2;
    int height = 0;
    SIZE sz = {0};
    PTCHAR url = 
        _T("Link 2)  ")
        _T("<A HREF=\"https://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/visualc/default.aspx\">")
        _T("Microsoft VC++ Home")
        _T("</A>");
    m_Link1.GetWindowRect( &rect1 );
    m_Link2.Create(url,
        (WS_VISIBLE | WS_TABSTOP | WS_CHILD | WS_BORDER),
        CRect(
        rect1.left, rect1.bottom + rect1.Height(), 
        rect1.right, rect1.bottom + (2*rect1.Height())),
        this,
        IDC_SYSLINK2);
    m_Link2.GetClientRect( &rect2 );
    // The return value of GetIdealSize() is the same as sz.cy
    height = m_Link2.GetIdealSize( 
        rect2.Width(), &sz);
    if ((sz.cx != 0) && (sz.cy != 0)) {
        int rc = m_Link2.SetWindowPos(
            this, 
            0, 0, sz.cx, sz.cy,
            (SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOZORDER | SWP_NOREPOSITION | SWP_NOACTIVATE));
    }

CLinkCtrl::CreateEx

Creates a link control with extended styles and attaches it to a CLinkCtrl object.

virtual BOOL CreateEx(
    LPCTSTR lpszLinkMarkup,   
    DWORD dwExStyle,  
    DWORD dwStyle,   
    const RECT& rect,   
    CWnd* pParentWnd,   
    UINT nID);

 
virtual BOOL CreateEx(DWORD  dwExStyle,
    DWORD  dwStyle,
    const RECT& rect,
    CWnd* pParentWnd,
    UINT  nID);

Parameters

lpszLinkMarkup
Pointer to a zero-terminated string that contains the marked up text to display. For more information, see the section "Markup and Link Access" in the topic Overview of SysLink Controls in the MSDN Library.

dwExStyle
Specifies the extended style of the link control. For a list of extended Windows styles, see the dwExStyle parameter for CreateWindowEx in the Windows SDK.

dwStyle
Specifies the link control's style. Apply any combination of control styles. For more information, see Common Control Styles in the Windows SDK.

rect
Specifies the link control's size and position. It can be either a CRect object or a RECT structure.

pParentWnd
Specifies the link control's parent window. It must not be NULL.

nID
Specifies the link control's ID.

Return Value

true if initialization was successful; otherwise false.

Remarks

Use CreateEx instead of Create to apply extended Windows style constants.

The second form of the CreateEx method is deprecated. Use the first form that specifies the lpszLinkMarkup parameter.

CLinkCtrl::GetIdealHeight

Retrieves the ideal height of the link control.

int GetIdealHeight() const;  

Return Value

The ideal height of the control, in pixels.

Remarks

This member function implements the behavior of the Win32 message LM_GETIDEALHEIGHT, as described in the Windows SDK.

CLinkCtrl::GetIdealSize

Calculates the preferred height of the link text for the current link control, depending on the specified width of the link.

int GetIdealSize(

Parameters

Parameter Description
[in] cxMaxWidth The maximum width of the link, in pixels.
[out] * pSize A pointer to a Windows SIZE structure. When this method returns, the cy member of the SIZE structure contains the ideal link text height for the link text width that is specified by cxMaxWidth. The cx member of the structure contains the link text width that is actually needed.

Return Value

The preferred height of the link text, in pixels. The return value is the same as the value of the cy member of the SIZE structure.
