Par2: Pick a directory using 32 bit API calls 1998-01-09 -- Jeff Berlinghoff CW4 has this built in, but I needed to be able to do this in CW2. It was easier than I
expected.
Global Embed, After Global Includes:
BROWSEINFO GROUP,TYPE
hWndOwner LONG
pIDLRoot LONG
lpszDisplayName LONG
lpszTitle LONG
ulFlags LONG
lpfnCallBack LONG
iImage LONG
END
Global Embed, Inside Global Map:
MODULE('Shell32')
SHBrowseForFolder(*BrowseInfo),LONG,RAW,PASCAL
SHGetPathFromIDList(Long,*CSTRING),LONG,RAW,PASCAL
CoTaskMemFree(*LONG),RAW,PASCAL
END
Procedure, Embed, Data
BI LIKE(BrowseInfo)
cTitle CSTRING(30)
cPath CSTRING(251)
In the Code (BE SURE YOU HAVE A WINDOW OPEN!)
cTitle = 'List Title Message'
cPath = '<0>{250}'
BI.hWndOwner = 0{prop:Handle}
BI.lpszTitle = ADDRESS(cTitle)
BI.ulFlags = 1 !only show directories!
lpIDList# = SHBrowseForFolder(BI)
IF lpIDList#
Result# = SHGetPathFromIDList(lpIDList#, cPath)
COTaskMemFree(lpIDList#)
MESSAGE(cPath, 'You Chose')
END
