c++ win32 checkbox list - multiple selection

Question

i would like to add a list of check boxes to my win32 application, because i need a control element with multiple selection. I've searched the msdn docs and found exactly what i need in this article: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dn742407.aspx. But i can't find any code related to it. Is this a special control element? Or is this just a list view filled with check boxes? Or is this a special style for the combo box control? Would appreciate if someone could provide an example or provide a link to the documentation of the control.

Answer 1

That screenshot is a ListView control with LVS_EX_CHECKBOXES.

The documented you linked to is UI guidance, not programming documentation. It's talking about UI design, not programmatic control names.
