IExplorerCommandState::GetState method (shobjidl_core.h)

Gets the command state associated with a specified Shell item.

Syntax

HRESULT GetState(
  [in]  IShellItemArray *psiItemArray,
  [in]  BOOL            fOkToBeSlow,
  [out] EXPCMDSTATE     *pCmdState
);

Parameters

[in] psiItemArray

Type: IShellItemArray*

A pointer to an IShellItemArray with a single element that represents the Shell item.

[in] fOkToBeSlow

Type: BOOL

FALSE if a verb object should not perform any memory intensive computations that could cause the UI thread to stop responding. The verb object should return E_PENDING in that case. If TRUE, those computations can be completed.

[out] pCmdState

Type: EXPCMDSTATE*

A pointer to a value that, when this method returns successfully, receives one or more Windows Explorer command states indicated by the EXPCMDSTATE constants.

Return value

Type: HRESULT

If this method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.

Remarks

This method provides the same functionality as GetState. Use IExplorerCommandState when you only need to know the command state.
