Description
TShellResources provides forward compatibility for programs that use system animations in Windows Vista or Windows 7.
Windows Vista or Windows 7 shell animations are no longer accessible outside of the system; programs must now store local copies of these animations instead of linking to them as was done in the past.
Placing TShellResources onto a form copies the following system animation resources into the program:
- CopyFile.res
- CopyFiles.res
- DeleteFile.res
- EmptyRecycle.res
- FindComputer.res
- FindFiles.res
- FindFolder.res
- RecycleFile.res
TShellResources should only be used in programs that are run on Vista and Windows 7 and use animations from the common library; otherwise, this function adds unneeded overhead.
