I have a custom treectrl class and i want insert some items into tree,is there any possible way to insert items in a sorted order(last created file should display first). Basicaly the treectrl which i have created is used as listctrl so each item is automatically become parent and no parent has children.
I can not use SortChildren() beacause no items are inserted as child.

What I have tried:

I tried to get filecreation time,and sort basis of it,but i can't sort after getting file creation time.

For that you must cleary separate the visual display (View) and the data source (Model).
Your data sounds more than a ordered list or an array. Insert the data ordered and than reload the data.

The list control has a lot of possibilities, so take a look at the articel Using the List Control. It has option for adeactivating ordering or setting a sort function (for callback ordering).
