Combines GetOffsetByFileExt() and GetPartitionInformation() so that both format-specific offset and offset to first partition is combined into resulting Offset. If a partition was found, size of it is also returned in the Size parameter.

This function builds a Master Boot Record, MBR, in memory. The MBR will contain a default Initial Program Loader, IPL, which could be used to boot an operating system partition when the MBR is written to a disk.

This function converts a CHS disk address to LBA format.

This function converts an LBA disk address to three-byte partition style CHS format.

Creates a new memory backed ImDisk virtual disk with the specified size in bytes.

Creates a new memory backed ImDisk virtual disk with the specified size in bytes, or with disk volume data from an image file. Memory could be either virtual memory allocated directly by ImDisk driver, or physical memory allocated by AWEAlloc driver.

Creates a new ImDisk virtual disk.

Creates a new ImDisk virtual disk.

Creates a new ImDisk virtual disk.

An easy way to turn an empty NTFS directory to a reparsepoint that redirects requests to a mounted device. Acts quite like mount points or symbolic links in *nix. If MountPoint specifies a character followed by a colon, a drive letter is instead created to point to Target.

Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.

Extends size of an existing ImDisk virtual disk.

Extends size of an existing ImDisk virtual disk.

Creates a new collection of partition table entries that only contains those entries from source sequence with valid partition definitions.

Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.

Returns first free drive letter available.

Forcefully removes an existing ImDisk virtual disk from system even if it is use by other applications.

Retrieves a list of virtual disks on this system. Each element in returned list holds a device number of a loaded ImDisk virtual disk.

Gets device type bits from a Flag field.

Gets disk type bits from a Flag field.

Gets file type bits from a Flag field.

Reads formatted geometry for a volume by parsing BPB, BIOS Parameter Block, from volume boot record into a DISK_GEOMETRY structure. If no boot record signature is found, an exception is thrown.

Serves as a hash function for a particular type.

Checks if filename contains a known extension for which ImDisk knows of a constant offset value. That value can be later passed as Offset parameter to CreateDevice method.

Parses partition table entries from a master boot record and extended partition table record, if any.

Parses partition table entries from a master boot record and extended partition table record, if any.

Parses partition table entries from a master boot record and extended partition table record, if any.

Gets proxy type bits from a Flag field.

Retrieves number of auto-loading devices at system startup, or when driver is loaded. This is the value of the LoadDevices registry value for imdisk.sys driver.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Checks whether an image file contains an ISO9660 filesystem.

Checks whether an image file contains an ISO9660 filesystem.

Determines whether flags specify either a virtual memory drive, or an AWEAlloc (physical memory) drive.

Checks if Flags specifies a modified virtual disk.

Checks if Flags specifies a read only virtual disk.

Checks if Flags specifies a removable virtual disk.

Loads ImDisk Virtual Disk Driver into Windows kernel. This driver is needed to create ImDisk virtual disks. For this method to be called successfully, driver needs to be installed and caller needs permission to load kernel mode drivers.

Starts ImDisk Virtual Disk Driver Helper Service. This service is needed to create proxy type ImDisk virtual disks where the I/O proxy application is called through TCP/IP or a serial communications port. For this method to be called successfully, service needs to be installed and caller needs permission to start services.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Notify Explorer and other shell components that a drive is about to be removed.

Notify Explorer and other shell components that a new drive letter has been created. Called automatically by device creation after creating a drive letter. If no drive letter was created by a device creation routine or if API flags was set to turn off shell notification during device creation, this function can be called manually later. Note that calling this function has no effect if API flags are set to turn off shell notifications, or if supplied drive letter path does not specify an A-Z drive letter. This function returns TRUE if successful, FALSE otherwise. If FALSE is returned, GetLastError could be used to get actual error code.

Opens a synchronization event that can be used with wait functions to synchronize with change events in ImDisk driver. Event is fired when for example a drive is added or removed, or when some options or settings are changed for an existing drive.

Restores a reparsepoint to be an ordinary empty directory, or removes a drive letter mount point.

Remove registry settings for creating a virtual disk at system startup (or when driver is loaded).

Adds registry settings for creating a virtual disk at system startup (or when driver is loaded).

Returns a String that represents the current Object.
