uac elevate while using ifileoperation copyitem

Question

I'm using below code to file copy operataion in windows seven,but it doesn't work and there is no any error while running or debugging,When the application goes to calling the CoGetObject it'll crash and can't returning any Hresult error,I just know the error occur in this line ->result := CoGetObject(pWideString(MonikerName), @BindOpts, ShlObj.IFileOperation, @iFileOperation); anyone can find any problem in this code? `

type
  PBindOpts3 = ^TBindOpts3;
{$EXTERNALSYM tagBIND_OPTS3}
  tagBIND_OPTS3 = record
    cbStruct: DWORD;
    grfFlags: DWORD;
    grfMode: DWORD;

    locale: LCID;
    pServerInfo: Pointer;

  BIND_OPTS3 = TBindOpts3;

      if Succeeded(result) then

    result := CoGetObject(pWideString(MonikerName), @BindOpts,
      ShlObj.IFileOperation, @lFileOperation);

    if Succeeded(result) then

What HRESULT value is CoGetObject() actually returning?

Do not cast a WideString to a pWideString when calling a COM function. Pass it in as-is and let Delphi handle the marshalling details for you.

And there is no need to call CoCreateInstance() after calling CoGetObject(). CoGetObject() already returns the required COM object to you. Use it as-is.

Try this:

function CopyItem(const aSrcItem, aDest, aNewName: string): HResult;
const
  CLSID_FileOp: TGUID = '{3ad05575-8857-4850-9277-11b85bdb8e09}';
var
  lFileOperation: ShlObj.IFileOperation;
  psiFrom: IShellItem;
  psiTo: IShellItem;
  BindOpts: TBindOpts3;
  MonikerName: WideString;
begin
  try
    Result := CoInitialize(nil);
    OleCheck(Result);
    try
      ZeroMemory(@BindOpts, Sizeof(TBindOpts3)); 
      BindOpts.cbStruct := Sizeof(TBindOpts3); 
      BindOpts.hwnd := 0; 
      BindOpts.dwClassContext := CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER; 

      MonikerName := 'Elevation:Administrator!new:' + GUIDToString(CLSID_FileOp); 
      Result := CoGetObject(MonikerName, @BindOpts, ShlObj.IFileOperation, lFileOperation); 
      OleCheck(Result);

      Result := lFileOperation.SetOperationFlags(FOFX_SHOWELEVATIONPROMPT or FOFX_NOCOPYHOOKS or FOFX_REQUIREELEVATION);  
      OleCheck(Result);

      Result := SHCreateItemFromParsingName(PChar(aSrcItem), nil, IShellItem, psiFrom); 
      OleCheck(Result);

      if aDest <> '' then 
      begin 
        Result := SHCreateItemFromParsingName(PChar(aDest), nil, IShellItem, psiTo); 
        OleCheck(Result);
      end; 

      Result := lFileOperation.CopyItem(psiFrom, psiTo, PChar(aNewName), nil); 
      OleCheck(Result);

      Result := lFileOperation.PerformOperations;
      OleCheck(Result);
    finally 
      CoUninitialize; 
    end; 
  except
    on E: Exception do ShowMessage(d.ToString());
  end;
end;
