Installable file systems DDI reference
Overview of the Installable file systems DDI reference technology.
To develop Installable file systems DDI reference, you need these headers:
For programming guidance for this technology, see:
Functions
| FilterAttach The FilterAttach function attaches a new minifilter instance to the given volume. |
| FilterAttachAtAltitude The FilterAttachAtAltitude function is a debugging support function that attaches a new minifilter instance to a volume at a specified altitude, overriding any settings in the minifilter's setup information (INF) file. |
| FilterClose The FilterClose function closes an open minifilter handle. |
| FilterConnectCommunicationPort FilterConnectCommunicationPort opens a new connection to a communication server port that is created by a file system minifilter. |
| FilterCreate The FilterCreate function creates a handle for the given minifilter. |
| FilterDetach The FilterDetach function detaches the given minifilter instance from the given volume. |
| FilterFindClose The FilterFindClose function closes the specified minifilter search handle. The FilterFindFirst and FilterFindNext functions use this search handle to locate minifilters. |
| FilterFindFirst The FilterFindFirst function returns information about a filter driver (minifilter driver instance or legacy filter driver) and is used to begin scanning the filters in the global list of registered filters. |
| FilterFindNext The FilterFindNext function continues a filter search started by a call to FilterFindFirst. |
| FilterGetDosName The FilterGetDosName function returns the MS-DOS device name that corresponds to the given volume name. |
| FilterGetInformation The FilterGetInformation function returns various kinds of information about a minifilter. |
| FilterGetMessage The FilterGetMessage function gets a message from a kernel-mode minifilter. |
| FilterInstanceClose The FilterInstanceClose function closes a minifilter instance handle opened by FilterInstanceCreate. |
| FilterInstanceCreate The FilterInstanceCreate function creates a handle that can be used to communicate with the given minifilter instance. |
| FilterInstanceFindClose The FilterInstanceFindClose function closes the specified minifilter instance search handle. The FilterInstanceFindFirst and FilterInstanceFindNext functions use this search handle to locate instances of a minifilter. |
| FilterInstanceFindFirst The FilterInstanceFindFirst function returns information about a minifilter driver instance and is used as a starting point for scanning the instances of a minifilter. |
| FilterInstanceFindNext The FilterInstanceFindNext function continues a minifilter driver instance search started by a call to FilterInstanceFindFirst. |
| FilterInstanceGetInformation The FilterInstanceGetInformation function returns various kinds of information about a minifilter instance. |
| FilterLoad The FilterLoad function dynamically loads a minifilter driver into the system. |
| FilterReplyMessage The FilterReplyMessage function replies to a message from a kernel-mode minifilter. |
| FilterSendMessage The FilterSendMessage function sends a message to a kernel-mode minifilter. |
| FilterUnload An application that has loaded a supporting minifilter by calling FilterLoad can unload the minifilter by calling the FilterUnload function. |
| FilterVolumeFindClose The FilterVolumeFindClose function closes the specified volume search handle. FilterVolumeFindFirst and FilterVolumeFindNext use this search handle to locate volumes. |
| FilterVolumeFindFirst The FilterVolumeFindFirst function returns information about a volume. |
| FilterVolumeFindNext The FilterVolumeFindNext function continues a volume search started by a call to FilterVolumeFindFirst. |
| FilterVolumeInstanceFindClose The FilterVolumeInstanceFindClose function closes the specified volume instance search handle. FilterVolumeInstanceFindFirst and FilterVolumeInstanceFindNext use this search handle to locate instances on a volume. |
| FilterVolumeInstanceFindFirst The FilterVolumeInstanceFindFirst function returns information about a minifilter driver instance or legacy filter driver and is used to begin scanning the filter drivers that are attached to a volume. |
| FilterVolumeInstanceFindNext The FilterVolumeInstanceFindNext function continues a minifilter driver instance or legacy filter driver search started by a call to FilterVolumeInstanceFindFirst. |
