the example, the boolean parameter <codeph>aHide</codeph> indicates if the
button should be hidden or dimmed.</p>
<codeblock xml:space="preserve">void CMyAppView::SetExtensionButtonUnavailableL( TBool aHide )
{
CAknToolbar* toolbar = Toolbar();
if ( toolbar )
{
CAknToolbarExtension* toolbarExtension = toolbar->ToolbarExtension();
if ( toolbarExtension )
{
if ( aHide )
{
// To show the item again:
// toolbar->HideItem( KExtensionButtonId, EFalse );
toolbarExtension->HideItemL( KExtensionButtonId, ETrue );
}
else
{
// To undim the item again:
// toolbar->SetItemDimmed( KExtensionButtonId, EFalse );
toolbarExtension->SetItemDimmed( KExtensionButtonId, ETrue );
