how do i get the My Computer icon using SHGetFileInfo?
i've tried this:
SHGetFileInfo(" ", FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ NORMAL, shinfo, Marshal.SizeOf( shinfo),
SHGFI_ICON + SHGFI_SMALLICON + SHGFI_DISPLAYNA ME)
but it doesn't work.
i'm not sure what the filename for My Computer should be?

You will have to first get the PIDL of My Computer using
SHGetSpecialFol derLocation and then pass this PIDL as the 1st parameter of
the SHGetFileInfo function.

i tried it with a PIDL:
Dim tmpPidl As IntPtr
SHGetSpecialFol derLocation(0, CSIDL_DRIVES, tmpPidl)
SHGetFileInfo(t mpPidl, 0, shinfo, Marshal.SizeOf( shinfo), SHGFI_PIDL +
SHGFI_DISPLAYNA ME + SHGFI_ICON + SHGFI_SMALLICON )
Marshal.FreeCoT askMem(tmpPidl)
it gets the PIDL ok, but the SHGetFileInfo causes an error

I am using the SHGetFileInfo to return the system icon. Is there
anyway to return and display the icon with out having to return it to
the ListView?
I'm using the SHGetFileInfo in my SharePoint C# solution web part, and
I cannot reference the system.windows.forms reference so I can not
access the ListView. So I wanted to see if there was a way to return
the Icon from the SHGetFileInfo and display it.

I am using SHGetFileInfo to get the ImageIndex for an app I am writing in
C Sharp running on XP Pro x64.
If I compile it as x86 my Virtual Drives are called "Virtual Drive" with
an ImageIndex of 9 but compiled for x64 they are "CD Drive" with an
ImageIndex of 7.
Is this because the drivers for the Virtual Drives are 32 bit? I see
Explorer calls then "CD Drive" as well.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
