Autoit and QueryDosDevice / DefineDosDevice

[Pino]

Hello to you all,

I want to use following Windows API Calls in Autoit.

QueryDosDevice

DWORD QueryDosDevice(
  LPCTSTR lpDeviceName,
  LPTSTR lpTargetPath,
  DWORD ucchMax
);

and

DefineDosDevice

BOOL DefineDosDevice(
  DWORD dwFlags,
  LPCTSTR lpDeviceName,
  LPCTSTR lpTargetPath
);

I think my calls are in Kernel32.dll.

I know, for Windows, API calls have to use DllCall ()

but I dont know how to use them in the right way in Autoit.

I have no idea how I can get back the information from

the QueryDosDevice and I also have no idea how to

work with DefineDosDevice and to do it in the correct way.

Please could you help me to fix my problem.

Start here and here

Here is some start point:

$DeviceName = "???"
$TargetPath = "???"
$ret = DllCall("Kernel32.dll", "int", "QueryDosDevice", "str", $DeviceName, "str", $TargetPath, "int", 255)
$ret = ret[0]
