Posted: Thu Dec 06, 2007 10:51 am Post subject: INFO: Correct format of the path of the root folder and internal items of a namespace extension |
|
|
The path of the root folder of the namespace extension has the following format :
"::{GUID of 'My Computer'}\::{GUID of the namespace extension}"
For namespace extensions located directly under the Desktop, the path is : "::{GUID of the namespace extension}"
The path of items in your namespace extension is as follows (assuming namespace extension is registered under 'My Computer') :
"::{GUID of 'My Computer'}\::{GUID of the namespace extension}\MyNSE_Folder\MyNSE_SubFolder"
An example of where this path can be used is when you want to launch Windows Explorer and have it automatically browse to the namespace extension. (by using the following command line : "explorer /N ,/select,<<path of the root folder/item inside the namespace extension>>")
Notes
1. See the documentation for the GetChildFromDisplayName and GetChildFromDisplayNameEx functions for information on how browsing to items within the namespace extension works.
2. The GUID of 'My Computer' is : {20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D} |
