Other API’s that are discussed:
IWHSInfo2

GetUsersInfo

New candy for the WHS developers in Power Pack 2

March 24, 2009

Now that Power Pack 2 of Windows Home Server has been released, there is a lot of discussion of its new features.

But we as developers don’t get too much info on the WHS SDK, so I did some digging into the new classes/properties/…

You can find a pdf document here that describes these new functions/properties/… complete with code samples.

You can find it here: http://www.asoft-ware.com/download.php?id=30

I will update the pdf later on to contain IDiskInfo2.

IDiskInfo2

IDiskInfo2 contains a new property called ‘LocationDisplayName’, this property lets you get/set the name of the hard disk location.

This enables a more clear identification of the location of the drive.

Have fun exploring them!

Updated website

March 23, 2009

A major redesign of the website is busy but time has held it back for a long time now.
So as an intermediate step I cleaned up the website, as it was in pretty bad shape.
Hope you like this new one, have a look: www.asoft.be

Welcome!

Here you will find occasional updates on the products I develop (AutoExit, .NET Version Detector, Addin Cleanup Tool,…)

Cheers,
