VC++ Example: OnPreparePrinting and OnBeginPrinting and OnEndPrinting, Plug-in class to support printing from a listview

 
Gregory Goeppel
February 2, 1999

read and used "Print the contents of the list control" by Ravi Reddy, as a basis for this code. His code is very good. However, I wanted a class that I could just plop into my view class as a contained member object to take over printing the list control. My class is LCPrinting.

Differences between LCPrinting and Ravi Reddy's code:

LCPrinting does not print in color (only black and white).

It does not print icons. It only prints a list control in report view.

It is a contained class. Just add it as a member to your view class.

It has support for column ordering (up to 30 columns.If U need more change it)

It guesses at the number of pages B4 the print dialog comes up.

It prints lines after each row.

It prints the header control manually instead of having the header print itself. This gives more control in how the header appears on a page.

Implementation:

Just add an LCPrinting member object to your view class like this:
LCPrinting lcp;
Override the following printing functions in your view class like so this:

//*****************************ONPREPAREPRINTING**********************
BOOL CStocky5View::OnPreparePrinting(CPrintInfo* pInfo)
{
 // The third parameter expects a pointer to your list control
 return lcp.OnPreparePrinting(pInfo, this, &lc); //Guess the # of pages
}

//**************************ONBEGINGPRINTING********************
void CStocky5View::OnBeginPrinting(CDC* pDC, CPrintInfo* pInfo)
{
 // The title and date are CString references printed on each page
 CStocky5Doc* pDoc = GetDocument();
 CMainFrame * mf_ptr = (CMainFrame *)AfxGetMainWnd();
 CString doc_title = pDoc->GetTitle();
 lcp.OnBeginPrinting(pDC, pInfo, doc_title, mf_ptr->fdc.date);

 return;
}

//***********************ONPRINT**********************
void CStocky5View::OnPrint(CDC* pDC, CPrintInfo* pInfo)
{
 lcp.OnPrint(pDC, pInfo);
 return;
}

//******************ONENDPRINTING************************
void CStocky5View::OnEndPrinting(CDC* pDC, CPrintInfo* pInfo)
{
 lcp.OnEndPrinting(pDC, pInfo);//Clean up those printing fonts
 CListView::OnEndPrinting(pDC, pInfo);
 return;
}

Here is the class header file:
