MemoryEx: ExtractAssociatedIcon

How do I use the LPWORD type? It's for this.


I'm at this so far:

Shell32 [COLOR="#FF0000"]=[/COLOR] Library[COLOR="#FF0000"].[/COLOR]Load([COLOR="#800080"]"Shell32.dll"[/COLOR]);

ExtractAssociatedIcon [COLOR="#FF0000"]=[/COLOR] [COLOR="#0000FF"]function[/COLOR](P)
 [COLOR="#0000FF"]local[/COLOR] m [COLOR="#FF0000"]=[/COLOR] MemoryEx[COLOR="#FF0000"].[/COLOR]Allocate(String[COLOR="#FF0000"].[/COLOR]Length(P) + [COLOR="#000000"]1[/COLOR])
 MemoryEx[COLOR="#FF0000"].[/COLOR]String(m[COLOR="#FF0000"],[/COLOR]-[COLOR="#000000"]1[/COLOR][COLOR="#FF0000"],[/COLOR]MEMEX_ASCII[COLOR="#FF0000"],[/COLOR]P)
 [COLOR="#0000FF"]local[/COLOR] n [COLOR="#FF0000"]=[/COLOR] MemoryEx[COLOR="#FF0000"].[/COLOR]Allocate([COLOR="#000000"]1024[/COLOR])
 [COLOR="#008000"]--[/COLOR]
 [COLOR="#0000FF"]local[/COLOR] H [COLOR="#FF0000"]=[/COLOR] Shell32[COLOR="#FF0000"].[/COLOR]ExtractAssociatedIconA(Application[COLOR="#FF0000"].[/COLOR]GetWndHandle()[COLOR="#FF0000"],[/COLOR]m[COLOR="#FF0000"],[/COLOR]n)
 MemoryEx[COLOR="#FF0000"].[/COLOR]Free(m)
 MemoryEx[COLOR="#FF0000"].[/COLOR]Free(n)
 [COLOR="#0000FF"]return[/COLOR] H
[COLOR="#0000FF"]end[/COLOR];

the index I assume would be 0, it's for getting the associated file icon of say a text or zip file.

Extract icons is well performed by Icon.dll by Sside.

In conjunction with ImageEdit.dll you can extract and save icons in a variety of image formats.

Thanks, you know I have, I think, all the dll's ever posted here but when I got into this memory stuff I figured whats the point in all these dll files when I can do it myself and learn the windows api's at the same time.

Hi, I'm sure of this. Mine was only a suggestion in case you would need to do things in the shorter time possible.

How do I use the LPWORD type?

An LPWORD is simply a pointer to a WORD. Allocate 2 bytes
of memory and provide the pointer to that word as LPWORD.

[COLOR="#008000"]-- ExtractAssociatedIcon(file path,icon index)[/COLOR]

easy as that then.
