What is ECP and IIRC ?

I have read pages about ECPs. I do not find anything about IIRC. Questions;

  1. Why do we need them ?
  2. How long they are valid ? Can I get them until file closed ? Is there valid in other calback routines such as pre-write ?
  3. What does IIRC stand for ?

Thanks in advance.

IIRC is If I recall correctly
ECP is Extended Create Parametres

> 3. What does IIRC stand for ?

IIRC: If I Recal Correctly
AFAIK: As Far As I Know
