IDockingWindow


The IDockingWindow interface is implemented by window objects that can be docked within the border space of a Windows Explorer window.

When to Implement

You implement IDockingWindow when you want to display a window inside a browser frame. This is normally used for user interface windows, such as toolbars.

When to Use

You do not normally use the IDockingWindow interface. The shell browser uses this interface to support docked windows inside the browser frame.

IDockingWindow is derived from IOleWindow. The following are the methods specific to IDockingWindow.
IDockingWindow Method Description
CloseDW Notifies the docking window object that it is about to be removed.
ResizeBorderDW Notifies the docking window object that the frame's border space has changed.

Note This interface is only supported in shell versions 4.71 and later.
