...do this requires calling CreateFile() + DeviceIoControl(). The thing is, I don''t know how to get a valid HANDLE to a instance of an already opened file. I''ve been trying something like this: static VALUE file_set_compressed(VALUE self, VALUE rbBool){ DWORD dwAttr; VALUE rbPath; HANDLE h; if((rbBool != Qtrue) && (rbBool != Qfalse)){ rb_raise(rb_eTypeError,"Argument must be true or false"); } rbPath = rb_funcall(self,rb_intern("path"),0,0); dwAttr = GetFileAttributes(StringValuePtr(rbPath)); h = CreateFile( (LPCT...

Hi all, Thanks to Wayne and Park, I''ve got something like this now: static VALUE file_set_compressed(VALUE self, VALUE rbBool){ HANDLE h; BOOL rv; DWORD dwBytesReturned; int fn; USHORT inBuf = COMPRESSION_FORMAT_DEFAULT; if((rbBool != Qtrue) && (rbBool != Qfalse)){ rb_raise(rb_eTypeError,"Argument must be true or false"); }

Hi all, I''ve got overlapped and offset support in both nread and nwrite. The only thing left before I want to release this (as 0.4.0) is to get NO_BUFFERING to work. Unfortunately, I can''t get it to work. Park, I looked at that site you sent (and borrowed some code from it), but I don''t see anything special happening for NO_BUFFERING. I thought it required

Hi all, I''ve checked in some code to win32-changenotify. Unfortunately, it doesn''t work right. I need some help. I don''t understand what, exactly, I''m supposed to pass to ReadDirectoryChangesW() for the 2nd argument, nor how to read the data back out. There''s also a WCHAR issue that needs to be worked out with regards to the FileName

Hi all, > fh = File.nopen("C:\\temp.txt",File::WRITE_ATTRIBUTES) > fh.hidden = true > fh.close > > I get "test.rb:16:in `hidden='': cannot convert nil into > String (TypeError)" It looks like this line is the culprit: rbPath = rb_funcall(self,rb_intern("path"),0,0); Hm...we could use GetFullPathName() if rbPath is nil. That, however, doesn''t deal with the fact that there are probably several other internal attributes that aren''t set if you use nopen(). I suppose I need to take a look at t...
