Sends a control code directly to a specified device driver
#include <WinAPIFiles.au3>
_WinAPI_DeviceIoControl ( $hDevice, $iControlCode [, $pInBuffer = 0 [, $iInBufferSize = 0 [, $pOutBuffer = 0 [, $iOutBufferSize = 0]]]] )
$hDevice | Handle to the device on which the operation is to be performed. The device is typically a volume, directory, file, or stream. To retrieve a device handle, use the _WinAPI_CreateFileEx() function. To specify a device name, use the following format: _WinAPI_CreateFileEx("\\.\DeviceName", ...) |
$iControlCode | The control code for the operation. This value identifies the specific operation to be performed and the type of device on which to perform it. |
$pInBuffer | [optional] A pointer to the input buffer that contains the data required to perform the operation. |
$iInBufferSize | [optional] The size of the input buffer, in bytes. Default is 0. |
$pOutBuffer | [optional] A pointer to the output buffer that is to receive the data returned by the operation. |
$iOutBufferSize | [optional] The size of the output buffer, in bytes. Default is 0. |
Success: | True and @extended flag contains the size of the data stored in the output buffer, in bytes. |
Failure: | False, call _WinAPI_GetLastError() to get extended error information. |
