FM_GETFILESELLFN

A File Manager extension sends an FM_GETFILESELLFN message to retrieve information about a selected file from the active File Manager window (either the directory window or the Search Results window). The selected file can have a long filename.

FM_GETFILESELLFN 

wParam = (WPARAM) index;                       // index of selected file 

lParam = (LPARAM) (LPFMS_GETFILESEL) lpfmsgfs; // selection data 

 

Parameters

index

Value of wParam. Specifies the zero-based index of the selected file to retrieve.

lpfmsgfs

Value of lParam. Points to an FMS_GETFILESEL structure that receives information about the selection.

Return Values

The return value is the zero-based index of the selected file that was retrieved.

Remarks

Only extensions that support long filenames (for example, network-aware extensions) should use this message.

An extension can use the FM_GETSELCOUNT message to get the count of selected files.
