Overview

An easy-to-use facade for doing IOCTLs on Windows.

Usage

Here's an example on how to use this module:

from infi.wioctl.constants import IOCTL_SCSI_GET_ADDRESS, ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED
from infi.wioctl import DeviceIoControl
from infi.wioctl.errors import WindowsException
from ctypes import c_buffer
from logging import getLogger

logger = getLogger(__name__)
out_buffer_size = 40
out_buffer = c_buffer('\x00'*out_buffer_size, out_buffer_size)
device = DeviceIoControl(r"\\.\PHYSICALDRIVE0")
try:
    _ = device.ioctl(IOCTL_SCSI_GET_ADDRESS, 0, 0, out_buffer, out_buffer_size)
except WindowsException:
    logger.exception("IOCTL failed")
    raise

Checking out the code

Run the following:

easy_install -U infi.projector
projector devenv build

Python 3

Python 3 support is experimental at this stage.
