I want to use the "RegisterDeviceNotification" function from "user32.dll" to get a notification if a usb device is attempt to remove

(WM_DEVICECHANGE -> $DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE). Can anybody help me to translate the Visual Basic call into a correct AutoIt-call?

Public Type DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE
  dbcc_size As Long
  dbcc_devicetype As Long
  dbcc_reserved As Long
  dbcc_classguid As GUID
  dbcc_name As Long
End Type

Public Const DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES = &H4
Public Const DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE = 0

Public Const DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE     As Long = 5

Public Declare Function RegisterDeviceNotification Lib "user32.dll" _
            Alias "RegisterDeviceNotificationA" ( _
            ByVal hRecipient As Long, _
            NotificationFilter As Any, _
            ByVal Flags As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function UnregisterDeviceNotification Lib "user32.dll" _
             (ByVal hRecipient As Long) As Long

Public Function DoRegisterDeviceInterface(hWnd As Long, ByRef hDevNotify As Long) As Boolean
    Dim NotificationFilter As DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE
        
    NotificationFilter.dbcc_size = Len(NotificationFilter)
    NotificationFilter.dbcc_devicetype = DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE
    
    hDevNotify = RegisterDeviceNotification(hWnd, NotificationFilter, DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE Or DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES)
    
    If hDevNotify = 0 Then
        MsgBox "RegisterDeviceNotification failed: " & CStr(Err.LastDllError), vbOKOnly
        DoRegisterDeviceInterface = False
        Exit Function
    End If
    
    DoRegisterDeviceInterface = True
End Function

Dim hDevNotify As Long

Sub Main()
'...
    Call DoRegisterDeviceInterface(Me.hWnd, hDevNotify)
'...
    Call UnregisterDeviceNotification(hDevNotify)
'...
End Sub

I've no idea how to define a type DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE, how to fill it and how to pass all parameters to the function call. ;)

Dim $DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES = &H4
Dim $DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE = 0

Dim $DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE As Long = 5

$hwnd = WinGetHandle(???)  ; How to find my own window handle?
$Flags = $DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES + $DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE  ; How to do the boolean operation "OR"?

$hDevNotify = DllCall("user32.dll", "long", "RegisterDeviceNotification", "hwnd", $hwnd, ??? , "long", $Flags) ; How to pass a type/structure?

$result = DllCall("user32.dll", "long", "UnregisterDeviceNotification", "hRecipient", $hDevNotify)

Thank you.

I'd imagine that you could do something like this:

#cs
    this is a struct -- I assume
    Public Type DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE
        dbcc_size As Long
        dbcc_devicetype As Long
        dbcc_reserved As Long
        dbcc_classguid As GUID
        dbcc_name As Long
    End Type
#ce

; now you can store and retrieve data with DllStructSetData and DllStructGetData
DllStructCreate("long dbcc_size; long dbcc_devicetype; long dbcc_reserved; int dbcc_classguid; long dbcc_name")

1) Use DllStructGetPtr()

2) Pass that pointer to a struct when using DllCall()

quick example:

$DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE = DllStructCreate("long dbcc_size; long dbcc_devicetype; long dbcc_reserved; int dbcc_classguid; long dbcc_name")

$DllPtr = DllStructGetPtr($DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE)

$hDevNotify = DllCall("user32.dll", "long", "RegisterDeviceNotification", "hwnd", $hwnd, $DllPtr , "long", $Flags)

Thanks for your answer. This is my code now:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Global $aDrives = DriveGetDrive('ALL')

Global Const $WM_DEVICECHANGE = 0x0219

GUICreate('USB-Handler')
GUIRegisterMsg($WM_DEVICECHANGE, 'MY_WM_DEVICECHANGE')

;ToDo -> RegisterDeviceNotification 
Global Const $DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES = 0x00000004
Global Const $DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE = 0x00000000

Global Const $DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE = 0x00000005

$hWnd = WinGetHandle('USB-Handler')
ConsoleWrite("$hWnd: " & $hWnd & @CR)

$DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE = DllStructCreate("long dbcc_size; long dbcc_devicetype; long dbcc_reserved; int dbcc_classguid; long dbcc_name")
$DllPtr = DllStructGetPtr($DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE)
ConsoleWrite("$DllPtr: " & $DllPtr & @CR)

$Flags = $DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES + $DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE  ; How to do the boolean operation "OR"?
ConsoleWrite("$Flags: " & $Flags & @CR)

$hDevNotify = DllCall("user32.dll", "long", "RegisterDeviceNotification", "hwnd", $hWnd, $DllPtr , "long", $Flags)
ConsoleWrite("$hDevNotify: " & $hDevNotify & @CR)
 
While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func MY_WM_DEVICECHANGE($hWnd, $Msg, $wParam, $lParam)
    ;ToDo ...
EndFunc   ;==>MY_WM_DEVICECHANGE

But unfortunately the return code of the DllCall "RegisterDeviceNotification" is 0. 

$hWnd: 0x008109E6
$DllPtr: 0x00CD69A0
$Flags: 4
$hDevNotify: 0

How can I find out what is wrong?

Best regards

Joline

OK, I think I made some progress here. Please run this and tell me if it returns anything useful.

#include <Array.au3>

Global $aDrives = DriveGetDrive("ALL")

Global $hWnd = GUICreate("USB-Handler")
Global Const $WM_DEVICECHANGE = 0x0219
GUIRegisterMsg($WM_DEVICECHANGE, "MY_WM_DEVICECHANGE")
;ToDo -> RegisterDeviceNotification

Global Const $DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE = 0x00000000
Global Const $DEVICE_NOTIFY_SERVICE_HANDLE = 0x00000001
Global Const $DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES = 0x00000004
Global Const $DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE = 0x00000005

Global Const $Flags = BitOR($DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES, $DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE)

Global $DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE = DllStructCreate("dword dbcc_size; dword dbcc_devicetype; dword dbcc_reserved; char dbcc_classguid[128]; char dbcc_name[1]")
;~ ConsoleWrite("$DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE @ERROR: " & @error & @CR)
DllStructSetData($DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE, "dbcc_size", DllStructGetSize($DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE))
DllStructSetData($DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE, "dbcc_devicetype", $DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE)
Global $PtrDEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE = DllStructGetPtr($DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE)

Global $hDevNotify = DllCall("user32.dll", "handle", "RegisterDeviceNotification", "handle", $hWnd, "ptr", $PtrDEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE, "dword", $Flags)

ConsoleWrite("USB-Handler hwnd: " & $hWnd & @CR)
ConsoleWrite("$PtrDEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE: " & $PtrDEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE & @CR)
ConsoleWrite("$Flags: " & $Flags & @CR)
ConsoleWrite("$hDevNotify: " & $hDevNotify[0] & @CR)
_ArrayDisplay($hDevNotify)

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func MY_WM_DEVICECHANGE($hWnd, $Msg, $wParam, $lParam)
    ;ToDo ...
    ConsoleWrite("Something" & @CR)
EndFunc ;==>MY_WM_DEVICECHANGE

Oh and when you run the script, insert or disconnect a usb device.

Oh, the $hDevNotify has a value now. Great. But unfortunately it doesn't work as expected. ;)

#include <Array.au3>

Global $aDrives = DriveGetDrive("ALL")

Global $hWnd = GUICreate("USB-Handler")
Global Const $WM_DEVICECHANGE = 0x0219
GUIRegisterMsg($WM_DEVICECHANGE, "MY_WM_DEVICECHANGE")
;ToDo -> RegisterDeviceNotification

Global Const $DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE = 0x00000000
Global Const $DEVICE_NOTIFY_SERVICE_HANDLE = 0x00000001
Global Const $DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES = 0x00000004
Global Const $DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE = 0x00000005

Global Const $Flags = BitOR($DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES, $DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE)

Global $DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE = DllStructCreate("dword dbcc_size; dword dbcc_devicetype; dword dbcc_reserved; char dbcc_classguid[128]; char dbcc_name[1]")
;~ ConsoleWrite("$DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE @ERROR: " & @error & @CR)
DllStructSetData($DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE, "dbcc_size", DllStructGetSize($DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE))
DllStructSetData($DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE, "dbcc_devicetype", $DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE)
Global $PtrDEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE = DllStructGetPtr($DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE)

Global $hDevNotify = DllCall("user32.dll", "handle", "RegisterDeviceNotification", "handle", $hWnd, "ptr", $PtrDEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE, "dword", $Flags)

ConsoleWrite("USB-Handler hwnd: " & $hWnd & @CR)
ConsoleWrite("$PtrDEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE: " & $PtrDEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE & @CR)
ConsoleWrite("$Flags: " & $Flags & @CR)
ConsoleWrite("$hDevNotify: " & $hDevNotify[0] & @CR)
_ArrayDisplay($hDevNotify)

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func MY_WM_DEVICECHANGE($hWnd, $Msg, $wParam, $lParam)
    ;ToDo ...
    Local Const $DBT_DEVICEARRIVAL = 0x8000 ; A device or piece of media has been inserted and is now available.
    Local Const $DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE = 0x8001 ; A device or piece of media is attemped to remove.
    Local Const $DBT_DEVICEREMOVECOMPLETE = 0x8004 ; A device or piece of media has been removed.
    ConsoleWrite("$wParam: " & $wParam & @CR)
EndFunc ;==>MY_WM_DEVICECHANGE

I get notifications for DBT_DEVICEARRIVAL and DBT_DEVICEREMOVECOMPLETE but not for DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE. This is the same behaviour as without "RegisterDeviceNotification". So I think RegisterDeviceNotification doesn't work properly.

Applications can use the RegisterDeviceNotification function to register to receive device notifications. DBT_DEVICEARRIVAL and DBT_DEVICEREMOVECOMPLETE will get EVERY application even without RegisterDeviceNotification. If the application is registered and the DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE is received, a permission is requested to remove a device or piece of media. Any application can deny this request and cancel the removal.

Maybe a parameter is missing or wrong. So I'll try a little bit but without any real idea.

Does this bring you any closer?

Unfortunately no. ;)

The goal is: I want to safe some files on the USB device BEFORE the USB device is removed. The notification DBT_DEVICEREMOVECOMPLETE is to late for that because there is no access to the device anymore. So if the USB device is attempted to remove (Left mouse click on tray icon and click "remove") I want to be informed about that (DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE) so that I can do something and after that I will release the USB device.

What I've now:

1. A USB device was inserted (DBT_DEVICEARRIVAL). This will happen just if I plug in a USB device. -> working.

2. A USB device is attempted to remove (DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE). Left mouse click on tray icon and click "remove". (After doing this I get immediately the information about finishing remove.) -> not working.

3. A USB device was removed (DBT_DEVICEREMOVECOMPLETE). I get this notification if I pull out (or safely remove -> click on tray icon) a USB device. (But this is to late to d something with this device.) -> working.

Because the notifications DBT_DEVICEARRIVAL and DBT_DEVICEREMOVECOMPLETE get every application. To receive any other notification (like DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE) the application has to call RegisterDeviceNotification. And if I never get DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE I think the registration was not really successful. But otherwise there is no error (=0). Curious.

From what I gather, DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE will only be announced when the driver for the usb is uninstalled.

Well, I really wanted to help you out but I've come to the limits of my knowledge.

There are some people here that are far more advanced than myself.

Hopefully they will chime in.

I want to use the "RegisterDeviceNotification" function from "user32.dll" to get a notification if a usb device is attempt to remove

(WM_DEVICECHANGE -> $DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE). Can anybody help me to translate the Visual Basic call into a correct AutoIt-call?

  dbcc_classguid As GUID
  dbcc_name As Long

Public Declare Function RegisterDeviceNotification Lib "user32.dll" _
            Alias "RegisterDeviceNotificationA" ( _
            ByVal hRecipient As Long, _
            NotificationFilter As Any, _
            ByVal Flags As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function UnregisterDeviceNotification Lib "user32.dll" _
             (ByVal hRecipient As Long) As Long

Public Function DoRegisterDeviceInterface(hWnd As Long, ByRef hDevNotify As Long) As Boolean
    Dim NotificationFilter As DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE
        
    NotificationFilter.dbcc_size = Len(NotificationFilter)
    NotificationFilter.dbcc_devicetype = DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE
    
    hDevNotify = RegisterDeviceNotification(hWnd, NotificationFilter, DEVICE_NOTIFY_WINDOW_HANDLE Or DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES)
    
    If hDevNotify = 0 Then
        MsgBox "RegisterDeviceNotification failed: " & CStr(Err.LastDllError), vbOKOnly
        DoRegisterDeviceInterface = False
        Exit Function
    End If
    
    DoRegisterDeviceInterface = True
End Function

Dim hDevNotify As Long

Sub Main()
'...
    Call DoRegisterDeviceInterface(Me.hWnd, hDevNotify)
'...
    Call UnregisterDeviceNotification(hDevNotify)

End Sub

I've no idea how to define a type DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE, how to fill it and how to pass all parameters to the function call. ;)

Dim $DEVICE_NOTIFY_ALL_INTERFACE_CLASSES = &H4

$hwnd = WinGetHandle(???)  ; How to find my own window handle?

$hDevNotify = DllCall("user32.dll", "long", "RegisterDeviceNotification", "hwnd", $hwnd, ??? , "long", $Flags) ; How to pass a type/structure?

$result = DllCall("user32.dll", "long", "UnregisterDeviceNotification", "hRecipient", $hDevNotify)

Thank you.

Thank you all but it doesn't work. ;)

Here is a snippet from MSDN:

"The system broadcasts the DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE device event to request permission to remove a device or piece of media. This message is the last chance for applications and drivers to prepare for this removal. However, any application can deny this request and cancel the operation." (DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE Event)

This is what I want to do. As I described, I want to safe some files to the USB device BEFORE it is removed. And as I understand DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE is the right thing to do it.

My understanding:

A USB device is inserted and working. I left-click on the tray icon to remove this device. DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE is sent to any application which has registered. Each of these application now can allow or deny this operation. I want to save something and after that allow the operation. But I get the DEVICEREMOVECOMPLETE message. And this is to late because the device is already removed. :)

Maybe there is an other idea to do this?

Found this: Capturing Device Events. The part that may be interesting to you is the "DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE" section. Even though I'm sure it's the key I'm at a loss as to what to do with the information.

What I've gathered so far is this: REgister for device notification (done). Use the information sent with a deviceArrival message to find the handle of the new device. Use filecreate with the information to get a handle to the device then use that to load up a dev_braodcast_handle structure.

Found that info here: (http://www.techtalkz.com/microsoft-device-drivers/252416-help-createfile-wm_devicechange-surprise-removal.html)

That's it so far.

Edit:

Got much closer! $lParam contains a pointer to a struct which contains detailed info about the inserted device. I created a DEV_BRADCAST_VOLUME struct which contains the drive letter of the USB device. I will use that drive to open a file stream device and then call RegisterDeviceNotification again but this time with different input data. I hope...

Edit: Currently stuck on opening a file stream to the device.

YES!

OK, ok, I lied, lawlz, but I decided to fiddle around and finally got a handle to the usb device! I have this code which displays a message box asking you if you want to continue with ejecting. I dunno if that's exactly what you want but it's a definate step in the right direction.

Tell me if this does what you want, please...

I have this code which displays a message box asking you if you want to continue with ejecting.

There is no message box... ;)

Because of $CheckError=True (line: If $CheckError Then Error("RegisterDeviceNotification")) I get the following messages:

Windows 7:

"RegisterDeviceNotification: The operation completed successfully."

Windows XP:

"RegisterDeviceNotification: The data is invalid."

But $hDevNotify[0] has a value.

Therefore I never get a notification but as long as the script is running, I can not remove the device...

This -> Detecting USB Drive Removal is exactly what I want (but in AutoIt :) ).

I have so less time. Maybe to night I have some time to fiddle around.

I wonder why I get a messagebox but you dont. I'm running win7 x64.

Do you unhook the device before you run the script?

After trying something I can lock the device from removing but I never get the DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE notification. ;) If I run the script and then insert a device, this device will be locked. I have to finish the script to remove the device properly. This might be ok but if I never get a notification there is no chance to release the device automatically.

As described in the link in the previous post (and also what you have detected) it is necessary to open a file on the USB device and pass the handle to RegisterDeviceNotification. That should be all (if I look to the C# example) but doesn't work in the script. :) What the hell is different?

**FACEPALM** I realize that the reason why the message box popped up was not because the device had been properly registered but because I opened a stream to the device.

That's right. ;) Me too. But after stare into the C# code (mentioned above) and fiddling around for hours I couldn'd whats wrong. This C#-Example works properly. And the explanation describes exactly to open a file/stream and register with this handle. blah. That's what you have done with your last code.

Maybe something is still wrong/missing in the NotificationFilter structure. Sadly I'm very busy at the moment but hopefully I'll found some time in the evening to continue...
