ShellBrowser Components

V6.3 for Delphi 6/7/2006/2007/2009 & C++ Builder 6/2006/2007/2009

The ShellBrowser component set gives a Delphi programmer easy access to the Win32 shell functionality. The TJamShellList, TJamShellTree and TJamShellCombo components look and behave exactly like the corresponding parts of the Explorer. The invisible TShellBrowser component provides an easy interface to the Windows shell interface.
All components support the properties page, correct icons, OLE Drag&Drop, the Explorer context menu and shuffling it with your Delphi popup menus.

A thumbnail component displays the Explorer thumbnail images and the TJamShellNotifier informs you about numerous shell events. Interesting sample projects and help file with a lot of sample code are included.

The ShellBrowser components are also available as ActiveX version and as .Net Edition.

By the way, I have done a quite extensive shootout between Shellshock, GXExplorer, Shell control Pack and ShellBrowser.
GXExplorer and Shellshock still have major bugs, and become very unstable after about 3 seconds of usage.
Shell Control pack (Plasmatech) is a bit limited in the feature set. Nice though...Major problem is that their support doesn't bother to get back to you, even if you are a potencial customer. (4 Stars)
ShellBrowser (Jam Software) seems to do everything one can ask for...has all the feature both ShellShock and GXExplorer have. Support is excellent, although not even a registered customer. (5 Stars)
