IFileOperation::RenameItem method (shobjidl_core.h)
Declares a single item that is to be given a new display name.
Syntax
HRESULT RenameItem(
[in] IShellItem *psiItem,
[in] LPCWSTR pszNewName,
[in] IFileOperationProgressSink *pfopsItem
);
Parameters
[in] psiItem
Type: IShellItem*
Pointer to an IShellItem that specifies the source item.
[in] pszNewName
Type: LPCWSTR
Pointer to the new display name of the item. This is a null-terminated, Unicode string.
[in] pfopsItem
Type: IFileOperationProgressSink*
Pointer to an IFileOperationProgressSink object to be used for status and failure notifications. If you call IFileOperation::Advise for the overall operation, progress status and error notifications for the rename operation are included there, so set this parameter to NULL.
Return value
Type: HRESULT
If this method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.
Remarks
This method does not rename the item, it merely declares the item to be renamed. To rename an object, you must make at least the sequence of calls detailed here:
- Call IFileOperation::RenameItem to declare the new name.
- Call IFileOperation::PerformOperations to begin the rename operation.
