DRIVE NAME !

Hello Everybody,

I’m writing a file system filter driver, which hooks all the create/open
operations.
As of now my driver retrieves the full path

For e.g.

\WINNT\system32\KBDUS.DLL

And i need to have the device or drive name:

\Device\Harddisk0\Partition2\WINNT\system32\KBDUS.DLL

OR

E:\WINNT\system32\KBDUS.DLL

This is really hard for a file system filter novice, would really
appreciate any help!

Thanks in advance
Swati

You attach to that device, so most probably you’ll find the device name
inside your own code ;). Store it in the device extension during
initialization.
