Display the type of disk, for example CD-ROM

#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <windows.h> int main() { char szBuffer[MAX_PATH+100]; DWORD dwLogicalDrives = GetLogicalDrives(); for ( nDrive = 0; nDrive<32; nDrive++ ) { if ( dwLogicalDrives & (1 << nDrive) ) { UINT uType; /* Get disk information.*/ wsprintf( szBuffer, "%c:\\", nDrive+'A' ); uType = GetDriveType(szBuffer); /* display information.*/ wsprintf(&szBuffer[3], " Id: %u, Type: %s ", uType, (uType == DRIVE_REMOVABLE) ? "FLOPPY" : ((uType == DRIVE_FIXED) ? "HARD DISK" : ((uType == DRIVE_REMOTE) ? "NETWORK" : ((uType == DRIVE_CDROM) ? "CDROM" : ((uType == DRIVE_RAMDISK) ? "RAMDISK" : ((uType == 1) ? "DOES NOT EXIST" : "UNKNOWN DRIVE TYPE" )))))); printf("%s\n", szBuffer); } } return 0; }
