TcxCustomShellListView.AbsolutePIDL Property

Specifies the identifier of the shell item being accessed.

#Declaration

Delphi
property AbsolutePIDL: PItemIDList read; write;

#Property Value

Type
PItemIDList

#Remarks

Use this property to specify the identifier of the shell item being accessed. Both virtual and standard shell items can be accessed using identifiers. Note that virtual shell items have no physical analogs – files or folders on hard drives.

Use the AbsolutePIDL property when working with Shell API directly. Using this property is similar to specifying the AbsolutePath property with the cxShellObjectInternalAbsoluteVirtualPathPrefix constant.

You can obtain the text representation of the item’s identifier by calling the GetPidlName function.
