Comment (by stippi):
Hi TigerKid001: I saw your code, thanks for working on this. You seem to
be having some misconceptions about how pointers work and/or how some of
the BColumnListView API works. When you ask the list, whether it already
contains an item, the list searches the exact pointer. When you create a
new BListItem instance with "new", the list cannot have a pointer to that
newly created item. To find the parent item, you need to find the item
manually from the list. But this seems expensive. It would be much more
efficient, if you remember the parent list item for as long as you
encounter entries with the same parent entry. In any case, what you see in
the list view is a direct result of never finding any parent item (because
you are doing it wrongly) and all entries are added to the top level of
the list.
If you need more help than that, I can probably find the time to rewrite
that function. But for that, I would like a patch with the complete code,
so I can test my changes more easily.
