I am just creating the extension for learn
Thanks for the reply Barry.

I am just creating the extension for learning purposes. I am aware that it is 
not recommended by MS nor supported.

I havent started on the ISO viewing yet. I am not really sure where to begin. I 
did a few googles to see if I could find some sample code but nothing was found.

So mainly the difficulty is opening the iso file as a stream or whatever and 
spit the contents out into a listview. 

Thats really all I want. To be able to view the contents of the ISO and put it 
in my listview. I already have something that extracts it.

any suggestions?

You shouldn't write in-process extensions to the shell in managed code,
because it causes the shell to load a specific version of the .NET
runtime into the shell process. This creates an ordering dependency if
there are multiple shell extensions that target different .NET runtimes.

For example, if there are two shell extensions, E_11 (targeting 1.1) and
E_20 (targeting 2.0) and E_11 gets loaded before E_20, then E_20 will
fail to load because you can't have more than one version of the .NET
runtime in a single process.

I'm not 100% sure what your difficulty is. Is it the ISO format itself?
If I was interested in that, I'd look at the ISO9660 file system driver
in Linux.

Subject: [ADVANCED-DOTNET] Reading contents of an ISO file


Hello everyone. I am in the process of writing an Extension to the
 Windows Shell and although I have majority of it complete I am having
 problems being able to view the contents of an .iso file. With my extension
 I will be working with iso files and a few other formats.

Can someone set me in the right direction as far as how to view/output
 the contents of an iso file?

My environment will be C# and Windows 2003 and up.

Thank you.

Steve
