发送文件夹重命名命令到Windows资源管理器

Question

I have a shell extension made in .NET that creates folders (think of it as a context menu New -> New Folder option clone) and uses a InputBox to input the name of the folder from the user. Instead I want to send the rename command on the folder to the already open Windows Explorer window. It should be just like how Explorer lets us name a new folder:

On searching, I found this : Windows Explorer Shell Extension: create file and enter "rename" mode . It says to use the IShellView::SelectItem function with the SVSI_EDIT flag. How do I do that with .NET? If that's hard, is there another way to do the same?

Here is some code that does this kind of things. You use it like this:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    SelectItemInExplorer(Handle, @"d:\temp\new folder", true);
}

And the code:

public static void SelectItemInExplorer(IntPtr hwnd, string itemPath, bool edit)
{
    if (itemPath == null)
        throw new ArgumentNullException("itemPath");

    IntPtr folder = PathToAbsolutePIDL(hwnd, Path.GetDirectoryName(itemPath));
    IntPtr file = PathToAbsolutePIDL(hwnd, itemPath);
    try
    {
        SHOpenFolderAndSelectItems(folder, 1, new[] { file }, edit ? 1 : 0);
    }
    finally
    {
        ILFree(folder);
        ILFree(file);
    }
}

[DllImport("shell32.dll")]
private static extern int SHOpenFolderAndSelectItems(IntPtr pidlFolder, uint cidl, IntPtr[] apidl, int dwFlags);

[DllImport("shell32.dll")]
private static extern void ILFree(IntPtr pidl);

[DllImport("shell32.dll")]
private static extern int SHGetDesktopFolder(out IShellFolder ppshf);

[DllImport("ole32.dll")]
private static extern int CreateBindCtx(int reserved, out IBindCtx ppbc);

[ComImport, Guid("000214E6-0000-0000-C000-000000000046"), InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIUnknown)]
internal interface IShellFolder
{
    void ParseDisplayName(IntPtr hwnd, IBindCtx pbc, [In, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string pszDisplayName, out uint pchEaten, out IntPtr ppidl, ref uint pdwAttributes);
    // NOTE: we declared only what we needed...
}

private static IntPtr GetShellFolderChildrenRelativePIDL(IntPtr hwnd, IShellFolder parentFolder, string displayName)
{
    IBindCtx bindCtx;
    CreateBindCtx(0, out bindCtx);
    uint pchEaten;
    uint pdwAttributes = 0;
    IntPtr ppidl;
    parentFolder.ParseDisplayName(hwnd, bindCtx, displayName, out pchEaten, out ppidl, ref pdwAttributes);
    return ppidl;
}

private static IntPtr PathToAbsolutePIDL(IntPtr hwnd, string path)
{
    IShellFolder desktopFolder;
    SHGetDesktopFolder(out desktopFolder);
    return GetShellFolderChildrenRelativePIDL(hwnd, desktopFolder, path);
}

这是一种间接方法，但您可以使用SendKeys函数将F2键发送到当前打开的Windows资源管理器窗口，然后模拟所需文件夹名称的输入并发送Enter键。
