add multiple lines to GUICtrlCreateListView in one statement

[ShadowElf]

it is possible to add multiple lines to GUICtrlCreateListView in one statement

my actual script

$test=GUICtrlCreateListView ("Test|ab", 10,10,185,50 )
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("xxx|yyy", $test)
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("sdf|sdf", $test)
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("asd|asdd", $test)

I want

$test=GUICtrlCreateListView ("Test|ab", 10,10,185,50 )
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("xxx|yyy &&& new line asdasd|aasd &&&& new line asdasd|dsaff", $test)

it is possible?

(my list is very large and i want to optimize)

You can create an array.

Dim $Data[3] = ["xxx|yyy", "sdf|sdf", "asd|asdd"]

$test = GUICtrlCreateListView("Test|ab", 10, 10, 185, 50)
For $i = 0 To UBound($Data) - 1
    GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($Data[$i], $test)
Next

I have create an array, but it takes too much time to add all lines (some cases 3000 lines)

For optimize I want to delete entire control list and remake with all lines inside

in GUICtrlCreateList i can put all lines when i create control

[Authenticity]

What is taking long? Typing in the array elements or adding them to the control?

If the later:

#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
;...

$test = GUICtrlCreateListView("Test|ab", 10, 10, 185, 50)

GUICtrlSendMsg($test, $WM_SETREDRAW, 0, 0)
For $i = 0 To UBound($Data) - 1
    ; Add a lot of items
Next
GUICtrlSendMsg($test, $WM_SETREDRAW, 1, 0)

may be a bit faster.

If the former, I have no idea how to make it faster.

[Yashied]

Or use _GUICtrlListView_Add...

[ShadowElf]

Or use _GUICtrlListView_Add...

It is faster? Because it doesn't support multiple line add at the same time

[GEOSoft]

If you have the array then you can just use _GUICtrlListView_AddArray()

Probably what you want to speed up is the array creation process itself.

thx all

_GUICtrlListView_AddArray() is the fastest way
