Syntax

 DosQCurDisk

    (DriveNumber, LogicalDriveMap)

Parameters

DriveNumber (PUSHORT) - output

Address of the number of the default drive, for example:

Value        Definition
1        A
2        B
.        .
   .
   

LogicalDriveMap (PULONG) - output

Address of the bit map (stored in the low-order portion of the 32-bit, doubleword area) where the system returns the mapping of the logical drives. Logical Drives A to Z have a one-to-one mapping with the bit positions 0 to 25 of the map; for example, bit 0 is drive A, bit 1 is drive B, and so forth. The settings of these bits indicate which drives exist:

Value            Definition
0            The logical drive does not exist.

Return Code

rc (USHORT) - return

Return code description is:

• 0 NO_ERROR
