SFVM_GETANIMATION message

Allows the callback object to specify that an animation be displayed while items are enumerated on a background thread. Used by IShellFolderViewCB::MessageSFVCB.

SFVM_GETANIMATION 

    wParam = (WPARAM)(HINSTANCE*) phinst;

    lParam = (LPARAM)(WCHAR*) pwszName;

            

Parameters

phinst [out]

The instance handle of the module that the resource should be loaded from.

pwszName [out]

A pointer to a null-terminated Unicode string containing the path of the .avi file or the name of an AVI resource. Alternatively, this parameter can consist of the resource identifier in the low-order word and 0 in the high-order word. To create this value, use the MAKEINTRESOURCE macro. The control loads the resource from the module specified by hinst. An AVI resource must have the "AVI" type.

Remarks

By default, the system folder view object displays the "flashlight" animation during a background enumeration.

phinst and pwszName will be passed to the animation control with an ACM_OPEN message.
