[python-win32] Retrieve Icons Associated To An Extension?

[Mark Hammond]

One way is code similar to:

    from win32com.shell import shell, shellcon

    flags = shellcon.SHGFI_LARGEICON | shellcon.SHGFI_ICON | \
            shellcon.SHGFI_USEFILEATTRIBUTES
    hr, info = shell.SHGetFileInfo(extension,
win32con.FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
                                   flags)
    hicon, iicon, attr, display_name, type_name = info
