StorageGUID Property

The GUID to create the virtual drive with.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
char* GetStorageGUID();
int SetStorageGUID(const char* lpszStorageGUID);

Unicode (Windows)
LPWSTR GetStorageGUID();
INT SetStorageGUID(LPCWSTR lpszStorageGUID);
#define PID_CBFS_STORAGEGUID 38

CBFSCONNECT_EXTERNAL void* CBFSCONNECT_CALL CBFSConnect_CBFS_Get(void *lpObj, int propid, int arridx, int *lpcbVal, int64 *lpllVal);
CBFSCONNECT_EXTERNAL int CBFSCONNECT_CALL CBFSConnect_CBFS_Set(void *lpObj, int propid, int arridx, const void *val, int cbVal);

Default Value

""

Remarks

When the StorageType property is set to STGT_DISK_PNP, this property is used to specify a GUID for the virtual drive, and must be set to GUID-formatted string (e.g., {676D0357-A23A-49c3-B433-65AAD72DD282}). Otherwise, this property can be left empty.

Some software uses a drive's GUID for the purpose of setting and maintaining certain configuration parameters. Therefore, applications are expected to use the same GUID when repeatedly creating a virtual drive that represents the same data.

Note: This property cannot be changed after a virtual drive is created, and cannot be changed within events.

This property is not available at design time.
