Creating tabs in a sharepoint webpart using multiview

Question

I would like to create multiple tabs within a webpart using "Multiview". There are lot of examples available for creating tabs using "Multiview" or "TabControl" but that were in asp.net pages.

So I would like to do the same in webpart, so please suggest how to achieve that functionality.

I have tried the following, it executed but nothing can be viewed inside the web part.

protected override void CreateChildControls()
{
  Label lblname = new Label();

  lblname.Text = "testlabel";

  MultiView multiMain = new MultiView();

  View view1 = new View();
  view1.Controls.Add(lblname);

  multiMain.Views.Add(view1);

}

Cheers,

First thing in the above code i observed. You are not adding the controls to Controls collection

this.Controls.Add(yourcreatedcontrol);

Then only the webpart can render your controls
