GetArchivesEx
The GetArchivesEx
function obtains the list of supported archives by all installed plug-ins
on the system.

INT
GetArchivesEx(
LPTSTR lpArchives
//
supported archives
); |
Parameters
lpArchives
[out] Pointer to a buffer
that receives the list of all archives supported by plug-ins installed
on the system formatted as COMMATEXT.
The archive types are represented as file masks. For example, CAB archives
will be represented as "*.CAB" (without the quotes). SZDD archives
(archives created using Microsoft's COMPRESS.EXE program) will be represented
as "*.??_". This assures that archives will always be correctly
identified, even if the archive extension is variable, as in the SZDD
archive type.
Pass
NULL in this parameter to request
the required size for the buffer.
Return
Values
The return value
specifies the required size of the buffer, excluding the number of bytes
necessary for a terminating null character.
Remarks
This function does not
return the actual list of archives which you may work with. The user may
disable or reassign the mappings from plug-ins to the archive types they
support. Certain archive types may therefore be partially or entirely
disabled.
See the GetSupportedArchivesEx
and EditPlugInBindings functions for
more information.
