[line 66]
Get drive information on windows systems

This class gives back a list of existing drives (like a:\, c:\ and so) as well as the drive types (hard disk, cdrom, network, removable) and drive names if any

The class requires the php_w32api.dll on php4 and the php_ffi.dll for php5

Note that the php_win32api.dll shipped with normal php packages has a problem with many parameters This means that the script will crash when trying to get the drive name. use "setReadName(false)" to prevent this.

On php5, the drive _names_ are always ''.

You should not use this on non-Windows operating systems

If you use this class in your projects, I ask you to send a real-world postcard to: Christian Weiske Dorfstrasse 42 04683 Threna Germany
