"FileNameMap" Format - Win32 Programmer's Reference

"FileNameMap" Format

The "FileNameMap" format is used with the CF_HDROP clipboard format to rename a list of files that are copied to a new location during a copy and paste operation or a drag and drop operation. Data in the "FileNameMap" format consist of a double-null terminated list of filenames that correspond to the filenames in the CF_HDROP data. When the files listed in the CF_HDROP data are copied to the new location, the files receive the new names specified in the "FileNameMap" data. For example, if the CF_HDROP data contains two files with the names c:\temp.000 and c:\temp.001, the "FileNameMap" data contains the following list of filenames.

"new.txt\0another.txt\0\0"

If the files are copied to c:\target, they receive the following names.

c:\target\new.txt(was c:\temp.000)

c:\target\another.txt(was c:\temp.001)

The system stores files in the recycle bin using a coding system for the filenames (dcxxxx.ext). When the user drags or copies files from the recycle bin, the system uses the filenames specified in the "FileNameMap" format to rename the files.

    Nostalgia .Net     .Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications.

Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More »
