g_fShellAPI
This global variable contains the status of a shell.
int g_fShellAPI
Remarks
By default, the notification subsystem interacts with a shell. The notification subsystem must check for the availability of a shell before calling any shell-related APIs, for example, Shell_NotifyIcon and ShellExecuteEx.
The following table shows the possible values for shell status.
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| SHELLAPI_BOOTING | This is the default value, which is set when the notification engine is initialized. |
| SHELLAPI_READY | The shell is loaded and the shell APIs are ready for use. |
| SHELLAPI_NONE | No shell is available. |
| SHELLAPI_WAIT | This counter specifies the number of attempts to make to determine whether the shell has loaded. |
