    Resolved [RESOLVED] Override TreeNode.Nodes.Add()

    Hey all,
    I have a class (myTreeNode) that inherits from TreeNode, and to myTreeNode I have added a class (customClass : IClonable) as a property.

    When I add myTreeNode to a tree TreeView, the default customClass is used. When myTreeNode is added to another myTreeNode.Nodes collection, the childNode's customClass need to assume a clone of the parents customClass.

    What I would like to do is override the Nodes.Add method from within the myTreenNode Class and clone the custom class there. I suppose I could override the entire Nodes collection and handle the Add, remove, etc methods, but all I need is to know when the child is added and have a reference to both the child and the parent at that time.

    Any "easy" way to do this?
    thanks for looking

    Re: Override TreeNode.Nodes.Add()

    sometimes all you have to do is ask to get the answer.
    VB.Net Code:
    1. Public Class MyTreeNode
    2.    Inherit Treenode
    3.  
    4.    Public SUb AddNode(newNode as myTreeNode)
    5.      newNode.customClass = Me.customClass.Clone
    6.      me.Nodes.Add(newNode)
    7. End Sub
    8.  
    9. End Class
    Really isn't that difficult. Just took a little pie to get to.
