Hi, I am creating a Qt4 c++ application and i target Windows and Linux. For windows i added an entry in the registry to create a context menu in explorer. After adding this feature the windows users want me to add an icon in that context menu. It seams that the only way to add the icon is to use a shell extension(except for windows 7 where the icon can be added from registry) I googled but i can't find a simple template, example for creating a basic context menu with icon that will work on a standard c++ compiler. Currently i am using mingw and googling I found examples that work with vc++5 or 6. I realy do not want to install some old compilers SDK to build the examples and i do not want to get to much involved learning shell extension programming for a icon
