Faster way to convert multiple dosdevice paths to file paths

\Device\HarddiskVolume1\Program Files\ test1.exe =>C:\Program Files\ test1.exe

Test 1 caches the drive letter and dosdevicename of every drive in a single string

it then uses regexp to find the dosdevice and replace it with the drive letter, only re-caching when string isn't found 

Test 2 calls DriveGetDrive and _WinAPI_QueryDosDevice everytime and uses simple stringreplace

Test 3 caches DriveGetDrive and _WinAPI_QueryDosDevice to an array and uses simple stringreplace, only re-cache when string isn't found 

#include <WinAPIFiles.au3>

Local $DosDevicePath = _WinAPI_QueryDosDevice("c:")
ConsoleWrite("C: = " & $DosDevicePath & @CRLF & @CRLF)

;Test1--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ConsoleWrite($DosDevicePath & "\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test1.exe" & " => ")
Local $hTimer = TimerInit()
Local $sDosDevMap = EnumDosDeviceMapString()
;ConsoleWrite("Lookup Strings: " & $sDosDevMap & @CRLF)
For $x = 0 To 200
    GetFilePathFromDosDevicePath("" & $DosDevicePath & "\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test1.exe", $sDosDevMap)
Next
For $x = 0 To 200
    GetFilePathFromDosDevicePath("yu" & $DosDevicePath & "yu\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test1.exe", $sDosDevMap)
Next
For $x = 0 To 200
    GetFilePathFromDosDevicePath($DosDevicePath & "yu\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test1.exe", $sDosDevMap)
Next
ConsoleWrite(TimerDiff($hTimer) & " MS" & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite(GetFilePathFromDosDevicePath($DosDevicePath & "\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test1.exe", $sDosDevMap) & " @error = " & @error & @CRLF)

ConsoleWrite($DosDevicePath & "yu\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test1.exe" & " => ")
ConsoleWrite(GetFilePathFromDosDevicePath($DosDevicePath & "yu\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test1.exe", $sDosDevMap) & " @error = " & @error & @CRLF)

ConsoleWrite("yu" & $DosDevicePath & "yu\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test1.exe" & " => ")
ConsoleWrite(GetFilePathFromDosDevicePath("yu" & $DosDevicePath & "yu\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test1.exe", $sDosDevMap) & " @error = " & @error & @CRLF & @CRLF)

yu\Device\HarddiskVolume11yu\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test3.exe => yu\Device\HarddiskVolume11yu\Program Files\Test\myprogram\test3.exe @error = 2

Test1 has the added advantage of more selective matching and really shines when the dospath exists

With a bit of optimization I lopped off a few Milliseconds and made the code slightly more robust

I think there are still some caveats that I don't have the ability to test atm 

These have to do with network drives "LanManRedirect" and possibly usb harddrives.

I'd like to see some of these paths if anyone happens to run across them I'll be happy to update this function given the original paths 

Func EnumDosDeviceMapString()
    ;Make a list of found drives and their DosDevice Name
    ;c:*\Device\HarddiskVolume1;d:*\Device\HarddiskVolume2;
    Local $sResult = ""
    Local $aDrive = DriveGetDrive('ALL')
    If IsArray($aDrive) Then
        For $i = 1 To $aDrive[0]
            $sResult &= StringUpper($aDrive[$i]) & Chr(127) & _WinAPI_QueryDosDevice($aDrive[$i]) & ";"
        Next ;Chr(127) is the DEL Char so string will actually show as c:\Device\HarddiskVolume1
        ;ConsoleWrite($sResult & @CRLF)
    Else
        ConsoleWrite("Error Enumerating Drives")
        Return SetError(1, 0, $sResult)
    EndIf

    Return SetError(@error, 0, $sResult)
EndFunc   ;==>EnumDosDeviceMapString

Func GetFilePathFromDosDevicePath($DosDevicePath, ByRef $sDosDeviceMap)
    ;Replace DosDeviceName with Drive Letter:\ in a path
    ;\Device\HarddiskVolume1\Test => c:\Test
    Local $sDosTempName
    Local $TempPath
    Local $aResult = StringRegExp($DosDevicePath & "\\", "(?i)(^\\Device\\.+?)(?=\\)(.*)(\\\\)", 1, 1) ;\Device\HarddiskVolume part is in elem 0 the rest elem 1 and \\ in elem 2
    If IsArray($aResult) Then
        $sDosTempName = $aResult[0]
        $TempPath = $aResult[1]
        For $i = 0 To 1
            If $i = 0 And Not (StringInStr($sDosDeviceMap, $sDosTempName & ";")) Then
                $sDosDeviceMap = EnumDosDeviceMapString() ;Failed try to get new drive mappings
                ContinueLoop
            EndIf

            $aResult = StringRegExp($sDosDeviceMap, "(?i)([\S]:(?=" & Chr(127) & StringReplace($sDosTempName, "\", "\\") & ";))", 1, 1) ;Return Drive Letter :\
            If IsArray($aResult) Then
                ;Return StringReplace($DosDevicePath, $sDosTempName, $aResult[0])
                Return $aResult[0] & $TempPath
            Else
                Return SetError(1, 0, $DosDevicePath)
            EndIf
        Next

    EndIf

    Return SetError(2, 1, $DosDevicePath)

EndFunc   ;==>GetFilePathFromDosDevicePath
