' ucDriveCombo v1.6
' A Modern DriveList Replacement
' by Jon Johnson
'
' Provides a modernized option for a Drive Combo without the extra
' complexity of a full blown ucShellBrowse control.
'
' Requirements: VB6 or twinBASIC Beta 515
' Note: This file combines the mUCDCHelper module; in VB6 that
' must be in its own .bas.
'
' Features:
' -Same codebase for VB6 and twinBASIC
' -64bit compatible
' -Filter drives shown by type
' -Uses same friendly name and icon as Explorer
' -Monitors for drive add/remove (optional)
' -Supports both dropdown list and standard dropdown styles
' -Drive selection can be get/set by path, letter, or name.
' -SelectionChanged event
' -Can provide list of drives
' -Can optionally classify USB hard drives as removable.
'
' Changelog:
' Version 1.6 (Released 19 May 2024)
' -Added ShowHiddenDrives option, default false, to show/hide
' drives that are hidden from the user in Explorer.
' -Changed default BackColor to standard CB's white.
'
' Version 1.5 (Released 27 Apr 2024)
' -(Bug fix) NoFixedUSB option not working
' -(Bug fix) Drive type always reported as 0
'
' Version 1.4 (Released 25 Apr 2024)
' -The .Drive legacy method now returns the same path for
' mapped network drives.
' -There's now a drive icon and control name/version in the
' combobox during design mode instead of a generic combo.
'
' Version 1.3 (Released 23 Apr 2024)
' -The .Drive property now returns names identical to the legacy
' DriveList control, and when set, behaves identical to that
' as well, only comparing the first letter.
' -(Bug fix) ShowRemovableDrives toggled network drives instead.
'
' Version 1.2 (Released 22 Apr 2024)
' -Add Drive property get/let for compatibility with DriveList;
' it behaves identically to .SelectDriveName.
' -DriveCount is now ListCount, for DriveList compat. Also added
' .ListIndex for selected index, and .List, same as GetDriveName.
' -Add Enabled property get/let.
' -(Bug fix) FocusDriveList VB6 syntax error
' -(Bug fix) VB6 control bottom cut off
'
' Version 1.1 (Released 22 Apr 2024)
' -Autosize UC height to combo height
' -Custom drop width now DPI aware
' -FocusDriveList method to hopefully partially defray the lack of
' a massive and usually typelib dependent in-place activation
' hook to handle tab properly. Recommend ucShellBrowse if you
' need proper tab key support.
' -(Bug fix) DPI variable overridden by old test line.
'
' Version 1.0 (Released 22 Apr 2024)
' -Add Property Lets for SelectedDrive_____
' -Add device add/remove monitoring via RegisterDeviceNotification
' -Add DPI aware support
' -Add DropdownWidth option
