win32utils devel - Nov 2008 - Question about FindFirstVolumeMountPoint

Hi,

I can''t seem to get FindFirstVolumeMountPoint to work. What am I doing
wrong?

require ''windows/volume''
require ''windows/handle''
require ''windows/error''

include Windows::Volume
include Windows::Handle
include Windows::Error

vol = 0.chr * 512
handle = FindFirstVolume(vol, vol.length)

if handle == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE
   raise get_last_error
end

vol.strip!
p vol # => \\\\?\\Volume{b4379d44-726d-11dc-87ec-806d6112693f}\\

FindVolumeClose(handle)

mp = 0.chr * 260
mhandle = FindFirstVolumeMountPoint(vol, mp, mp.length)

if mhandle == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE
   raise get_last_error # ERROR => There are no more files.
(RuntimeError)
end

p mp.strip

FindVolumeMountPointClose(mhandle)

I''ve probably misread the directions somewhere. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Dan

That is a normal result for no mounted folders.

Refer to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa365733(VS.85).aspx

First, you can create mounted folders like this

c:\> mkdir c:\mnt\cdrive
c:\> mountvol c:\mnt\cdrive \\?\Volume{b4379d44-726d-11dc-87ec-806d6112693f}\

Next, If you run the ruby code, the result is
"mnt\\cdrive\\"
