Résumé

What is the Subject Area?

Windows 98 is the culmination of many improvements to what is now a fully-fledged, 32-bit, COM-based operating system. With suitable instruction, you can push the Windows shell to performing complex actions, and customize it using C++/ATL programs.

Until now, the documentation for Windows shell programming has been poor. This book is about telling you exactly how to use the tools available, and when each tool is appropriate. There's coverage of the Windows API, the Windows Scripting Host, and shell and namespace extensions that use ATL and the shell's COM object model. Information on these topics at this level has been scarce, but the author brings them all together in this volume.

What's Great About this Book?

Fully analyzes the tools available for programming the shell
Builds sample applications using Visual C++ and ATL
Uncovers the workings behind the Windows Shell API
Reveals how to create shell and namespace extensions using COM and ATL

Who is this Book for?

This title is for programmers with solid experience of Windows programming, and who are familiar with COM/ATL programming using Visual C++.
