Any documentation for Win32 ShellEx StorageHandler?

I am currently thinking about a new archiving format, and I was interested in implementing a shell extension like the built-in Zip support supported by Windows XP.

This appears to be accomplished by registering a shell extension that implements StorageHandler

. The problem is, according to MSDN, this handler does not exist. I tried various google resources but couldn't find anything.

Is there any documentation for this anywhere, or is this just another instance of Microsoft refusing to share fun toys with the rest of us?

I don't know about StorageHandler. what you are trying to do is expanding the namespace. Have a look at IShellFolder for a starting point.
