IShellLink

Presentation

Provides IShellLink COM interface inside MMF/CF's applications. IShellLink interface allows to get and set Shell link file's parameters, load and save them from usual Shell link file (having LNK extension).

Alternatives

Before creating this extension, I was using the following undocumented but well-known command line expression:

appwiz.cpl,NewLinkHere

This one is not as handy and complete as IShellLink interface and behaves differently before and after Microsoft Windows Vista.

Some others extensions may allow to read and create Shell link file, perhaps COM object for example.

Details

IShellLink is currently developed using:

  • MMF 2 standard SDK
  • Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition
