This is what I did:
LPMALLOC malloc;
LPITEMIDLIST pidl;
SHFILEINFO FileInfo;
SFGAOF sfGao;
if (SUCCEEDED(SHGetMalloc(&malloc))
{
if (SUCCEEDED(SHParseDisplayName(strDirPath, NULL, &pidl, SFGAO_FOLDER, &sfGao)))
{
SHGetFileInfo((LPCWSTR)(PCHAR(pidl)), 0, &FileInfo, sizeof(FileInfo), SHGFI_PIDL | SHGFI_ICON);
CDC* pDC = GetWindowDC();
pDC->DrawIcon(10, 10, FileInfo.hIcon);
ReleaseDC(pDC);
}
malloc->Free(pidl);
}
malloc->Release();
Here's the problem. I found that I can get the icon of a folder easily with this approach. But I could not get its open icon, when I set the fourth parameter of SHGetFileInfo method to be SHGFI_PIDL | SHGFI_OPENICON. The hIcon of FileInfo is always NULL, and I don't know why.
Can anyone tell me how to fix the problem. Thanks very much!
