CStringList

The following is a simple sample of using a CStringList. The first thing to do is to define a variable, as in:

CStringList StringList;

Then add entries, as in:

StringList.AddTail("A string");

Then iterating through the list could be as easy as in the following:

	CString String;
POSITION Position = StringList.GetHeadPosition();
while (Position)
	String = StringList.GetNext(Position);

Notice that since we are not storing pointers, there is not any clean-up necessary beyond the default destructor. When the CStringList is deleted, all strings are also deleted. This is different when a collection contains pointers, because then the data pointed to must be deleted prior to deleteing the collection.
