ShellBrowser Delphi Components

Native VCL Explorer Shell Controls for Delphi

Display the contents of a folder in a list looking and behaving like the right pane of the Windows Explorer and customize it according to your needs using the TJamShellList component.

Use TJamExplorerBrowser to add an entire Windows Explorer to your application.

TJamShellCombo is a configurable Windows Explorer style combobox for shell objects.

TJamShellBreadCrumbBar integrates the breadcrumb navigation introduced with Windows Vista Explorer. It presents the folder and subfolder structures and enables users to easily switch between different folders.

TJamShellHistoryPane adds a history pane included in the Windows Explorer’s addressbar. It can be included in TJamShellBreadcrumbBar as well as  TJamExplorerBrowser or be used separately to track and navigate the history of components linked with a TJamShellLink.

Use TJamShellSearchEdit to support an on-the-fly search in a linked TJamShellList or TJamExplorerBrowser. It is included as optional pane in TJamShellBreadCrumbBar and TJamExplorerBrowser.

With the TJamFilePreview component users can see the content of files without opening them. It uses the same previews as Windows Explorer.

Using the TDetailsPane you can display the values of some default properties of a file or folder, such as size or the creation date. Additionally, it embeds a TJamFilePreview or TJamThumbnailImage component.

Use the TJamThumbnailImage component to display a thumbnail image of a file or folder using the same API calls as the Windows Explorer.

The TJamFileList component can be used to aggregate files and folders from different directories in one single list.

With the help of the TJamDriveList component you can create a list of all local and network drives of the system as well as display capacity and free disk space of each drive.

The TJamPathLabel component displays paths in a label ensuring the full file name is readable.

Utilize the TJamPathEdit component to enable users of your application to enter a path or to browse for it in a dialog.

With the TJamFolderCombo component you can easily display folders and drives in a combo box - associated icons included.

The TJamOpenSaveComboBox has been designed specifically for the user to enter or select a file name in custom file dialogs. A list of the most recently used files is available in the drop-down menu. File path and filter can be easily synchronized with other ShellBrowser components using a TJamShellLink.

As the name suggests, the TJamFilterCombo can be configured with a list of filters. Connected to other ShellBrowser components via a TJamShellLink, a filter will be automatically applied in components capable of filtering, such as the TJamOpenSaveComboBox, ExplorerBrowser, TJamShellList or TJamShellTree. The filter can be selected from a list of predefined filters or will be supplied on-the-fly.

The TJamBrowseForFolder component displays a Windows dialog box for selecting and opening folders.

Enable users to easily connect a net drive with the TJamNetConnectionDialog component.

Present a list of all connected net drives and let users of your application easily disconnect them with the TJamNetDisconnectDialog component.

The TJamFileOperation component is used to perform file operations like copy, move, rename, or delete.

The TFrame-based component TJamFileDialogFrame tries to fill the gap between easy-to-use but hardly customizable fixed dialogs like TFileOpenDialog on the one hand, and manually built, "all custom" dialogs on the other. It comprises a working dialog, that can be extended and adapted to your needs. Both, File- and Folder Mode are supported.

Link TJamDropFiles or TJamDragFiles Delphi component to other controls to support and manage drag and drop operations of file system objects.

TShellBrowser is a non-visual component allowing you to browse the shell namespace of Windows, to query information about shell objects and to perform context menu operations.

The TJamShellChangeNotifier component informs about changes in the file system and the shell (such as copy, move, or delete).

Gain access to the Windows system image list with the TJamSystemImageList component and display shell-related information.

Keeping the displayed folder or selected elements of the visual ShellBrowser components in sync is very easy with the TJamShellLink component.
