IShellFolder
The IShellFolder interface is used to manage folders.
When to Implement
Implement IShellFolder for objects that extend the shell's namespace. For example, if you create a
separate name space that requires a rooted Explorer; or if you install a new
name space directly within the hierarchy of the system name space.Only you know
anything about the contents of your name space so you are responsible for
implementing everything needed to access your data.
When to Use
Use IShellFolder when you need to display or operate on the contents of the shell's namespace.
Objects that support IShellFolder are usually created by other shell folder objects, with the root object (the
Desktop shell folder) being returned from the SHGetDesktopFolder function.

Nostalgia .Net |

.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. 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 » |
