    Requirements
    RadControls for WinForms

    Q2 2010 
    .NET version

    Any
    Visual Studio version

    Any
    programming language

    C# and VB.NET

    PROJECT DESCRIPTION 
    I put together this little function for something that wasn't required in the end but thought it could be quite useful sometimes. 

    This code returns a collection of RadMenuItemBase objects from a given control that contains RadMenuItemBase objects 

    For example: Use it to get back a collection of all RadMenuItemBase objects in RadMenu, RadApplicationMenu, RadSplitButton 
    VB:
    Public Shared Function GetRadMenuItems(ByVal items As Telerik.WinControls.RadItemCollection) As ReadOnlyCollection(Of RadMenuItemBase)
        Dim returnItems As New List(Of RadMenuItemBase)()
        For Each item As RadMenuItemBase In items
            returnItems.Add(item)
            Dim subItems As ReadOnlyCollection(Of RadMenuItemBase) = GetRadMenuItems(item.Items)
            returnItems.AddRange(subItems)
        Next
        Dim readOnlyItems As New ReadOnlyCollection(Of RadMenuItemBase)(returnItems)
        Return readOnlyItems
    End Function
    C#: 
    public static ReadOnlyCollection<RadMenuItemBase> GetRadMenuItems(Telerik.WinControls.RadItemCollection items)
    {
        List<RadMenuItemBase> returnItems = new List<RadMenuItemBase>();
        foreach (RadMenuItemBase item in items) {
            returnItems.Add(item);
            ReadOnlyCollection<RadMenuItemBase> subItems = GetRadMenuItems(item.Items);
            returnItems.AddRange(subItems);
        }
        ReadOnlyCollection<RadMenuItemBase> readOnlyItems = new ReadOnlyCollection<RadMenuItemBase>(returnItems);
        return readOnlyItems;
    }

    The code can easily be adapted too to get back a flattened collection of items from other types,
    For example: Adapt it and use it to get back a collection of RadtreeNode objects in a RadTreeView
    VB:
    Public Shared Function GetRadTreeNodes(ByVal nodes As Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadTreeNodeCollection) As ReadOnlyCollection(Of RadTreeNode)
        Dim returnNodes As New List(Of RadTreeNode)()
        For Each node As RadTreeNode In nodes
            returnNodes.Add(node)
            Dim subNodes As ReadOnlyCollection(Of RadTreeNode) = GetRadTreeNodes(node.Nodes)
            returnNodes.AddRange(subNodes)
        Next
        Dim readOnlyNodes As New ReadOnlyCollection(Of RadTreeNode)(returnNodes)
        Return readOnlyNodes
    End Function
    C#:
    public static ReadOnlyCollection<RadTreeNode> GetRadTreeNodes(Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadTreeNodeCollection nodes)
    {
        List<RadTreeNode> returnNodes = new List<RadTreeNode>();
        foreach (RadTreeNode node in nodes) {
            returnNodes.Add(node);
            ReadOnlyCollection<RadTreeNode> subNodes = GetRadTreeNodes(node.Nodes);
            returnNodes.AddRange(subNodes);
        }
        ReadOnlyCollection<RadTreeNode> readOnlyNodes = new ReadOnlyCollection<RadTreeNode>(returnNodes);
        return readOnlyNodes;
    }

    Regards,
    Richard
