Exposes a method that obtains an icon index for an IShellFolder object.
Members

Methods
The IShellIcon interface has these methods.
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| GetIconOf |
Gets an icon for an object inside a specific folder. |
Remarks
Implement IShellIcon when creating an IShellFolder implementation to provide a quick way to obtain the icon for an object in the folder.
If IShellIcon is not implemented by an IShellFolder object, IShellFolder::GetUIObjectOf is used to retrieve an icon for all objects.
Use IShellIcon when retrieving the icon index for an item in a Shell folder.
IShellIcon allows an application to obtain the icon for any object within a folder by using only one instance of the interface. IExtractIcon, on the other hand, requires that a separate instance of the interface be created for each object.
