| Hi
I am developing an application for krome IQ700. This application requires
to get all the favorite URLS. I am planning to get this information from
the folder "Storage\Windows\Favorites\" where each favorite url is stored
as a file with the name of the file as the url name.
Kindly tell me, is it the same place where the favorite urls are stored in
all other smartphones( 2002 & 2003).
Is there a better method to do this?
I have tried the "Browser Favorite" using the DMProcessConfigXML(), but
without knowing the favorite name, it is not possible to get the urls.
Thanks
With Regards
Abirami

| If you are trying to get the folder path from a desktop computer, using
RAPI, then you want to use CeGetSpecialFolderPath.
If you are trying to get the folder path from application running on the
phone itself, then you want to use SHGetSpecialFolderPath.
SHGetSpecialFolderLocation may also do the trick.
CSIDL_FAVORITES is the folder ID that you would want to send to any of those
functions. Also be aware that users can organize their favorites into
folders.
