-=head1 NAME
-
-Win32API::File - Low-level access to Win32 system API calls for files/dirs.
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
- use Win32API::File 0.08 qw( :ALL );
-
- MoveFile( $Source, $Destination )
- or die "Can't move $Source to $Destination: ",fileLastError(),"\n";
- MoveFileEx( $Source, $Destination, MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING() )
- or die "Can't move $Source to $Destination: ",fileLastError(),"\n";
- [...]
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-This provides fairly low-level access to the Win32 System API
-calls dealing with files and directories.
-
-To pass in C<NULL> as the pointer to an optional buffer, pass in
-an empty list reference, C<[]>.
-
-Beyond raw access to the API calls and related constants, this module
-handles smart buffer allocation and translation of return codes.
-
-All functions, unless otherwise noted, return a true value for success
-and a false value for failure and set C<$^E> on failure.
-
-=head2 Object Oriented/Tied Handle Interface
-
-WARNING: this is new code, use at your own risk.
-
-This version of C<Win32API::File> can be used like an C<IO::File> object:
-
- my $file = Win32API::File->new("+> foo");
- binmode $file;
- print $file "hello there\n";
- seek $file, 0, 0;
- my $line = <$file>;
- $file->close;
-
-It also supports tying via a win32 handle (for example, from C<createFile()>):
-
- tie FILE, 'Win32API::File', $win32_handle;
- print FILE "...";
-
-It has not been extensively tested yet and buffered I/O is not yet implemented.
-

-
-=item C<$hObject= createFile( $sPath, $svAccess, $svShare, $rvhvOptions )>
-
-This is a Perl-friendly wrapper around C<CreateFile>.
-
-On failure, C<$hObject> gets set to a false value and C<regLastError()>
-and C<$^E> are set to the reason for the failure. Otherwise,
-C<$hObject> gets set to a Win32 native file handle which is alwasy
-a true value [returns C<"0 but true"> in the impossible(?) case of
-the handle having a value of C<0>].
-
-C<$sPath> is the path to the file [or device, etc.] to be opened. See
-C<CreateFile> for more information on possible special values for
-C<$sPath>.
-
-C<$svAccess> can be a number containing the bit mask representing
-the specific type(s) of access to the file that you desire. See the
-C<$uAccess> parameter to C<CreateFile> for more information on these
-values.
-
-More likely, C<$svAccess> is a string describing the generic type of
-access you desire and possibly the file creation options to use. In
-this case, C<$svAccess> should contain zero or more characters from
-C<"qrw"> [access desired], zero or one character each from C<"ktn">
-and C<"ce">, and optional white space. These letters stand for,
-respectively, "Query access", "Read access", "Write access", "Keep if
-exists", "Truncate if exists", "New file only", "Create if none", and
-"Existing file only". Case is ignored.
-
-You can pass in C<"?"> for C<$svAccess> to have an error message
-displayed summarizing its possible values. This is very handy when
-doing on-the-fly programming using the Perl debugger:
-
- Win32API::File::createFile: $svAccess can use the following:
- One or more of the following:
- q -- Query access (same as 0)
- r -- Read access (GENERIC_READ)
- w -- Write access (GENERIC_WRITE)
- At most one of the following:
- k -- Keep if exists
- t -- Truncate if exists
- n -- New file only (fail if file already exists)
- At most one of the following:
- c -- Create if doesn't exist
- e -- Existing file only (fail if doesn't exist)
- '' is the same as 'q k e'
- 'r' is the same as 'r k e'
- 'w' is the same as 'w t c'
- 'rw' is the same as 'rw k c'
- 'rt' or 'rn' implies 'c'.
- Or $access can be numeric.
-
-C<$svAccess> is designed to be "do what I mean", so you can skip
-the rest of its explanation unless you are interested in the complex
-details. Note that, if you want write access to a device, you need
-to specify C<"k"> [and perhaps C<"e">, as in C<"w ke"> or C<"rw ke">]
-since Win32 suggests C<OPEN_EXISTING> be used when opening a device.
-
-=over
-
-=item C<"q">
-
-Stands for "Query access". This is really a no-op since you always have
-query access when you open a file. You can specify C<"q"> to document
-that you plan to query the file [or device, etc.]. This is especially
-helpful when you don't want read nor write access since something like
-C<"q"> or C<"q ke"> may be easier to understand than just C<""> or C<"ke">.
-
-=item C<"r">
-
-Stands for "Read access". Sets the C<GENERIC_READ> bit(s) in the
-C<$uAccess> that is passed to C<CreateFile>. This is the default
-access if the C<$svAccess> parameter is missing [or if it is C<undef>
-and C<$rvhvOptions> doesn't specify an C<"Access"> option].
-
-=item C<"w">
-
-Stands for "Write access". Sets the C<GENERIC_WRITE> bit(s) in the
-C<$uAccess> that is passed to C<CreateFile>.
-
-=item C<"k">
-
-Stands for "Keep if exists". If the requested file exists, then it is
-opened. This is the default unless C<GENERIC_WRITE> access has been
-requested but C<GENERIC_READ> access has not been requested. Contrast
-with C<"t"> and C<"n">.
-
-=item C<"t">
-
-Stands for "Truncate if exists". If the requested file exists, then
-it is truncated to zero length and then opened. This is the default if
-C<GENERIC_WRITE> access has been requested and C<GENERIC_READ> access
-has not been requested. Contrast with C<"k"> and C<"n">.
-
-=item C<"n">
-
-Stands for "New file only". If the requested file exists, then it is
-not opened and the C<createFile> call fails. Contrast with C<"k"> and
-C<"t">. Can't be used with C<"e">.
-
-=item C<"c">
-
-Stands for "Create if none". If the requested file does not
-exist, then it is created and then opened. This is the default
-if C<GENERIC_WRITE> access has been requested or if C<"t"> or
-C<"n"> was specified. Contrast with C<"e">.
-
-=item C<"e">
-
-Stands for "Existing file only". If the requested file does not
-exist, then nothing is opened and the C<createFile> call fails. This
-is the default unless C<GENERIC_WRITE> access has been requested or
-C<"t"> or C<"n"> was specified. Contrast with C<"c">. Can't be
-used with C<"n">.

-
-C<$svShare> controls how the file is shared, that is, whether other
-processes can have read, write, and/or delete access to the file while
-we have it opened. C<$svShare> will usually be a string containing zero
-or more characters from C<"rwd"> but can also be a numeric bit mask.
-
-C<"r"> sets the C<FILE_SHARE_READ> bit which allows other processes to have
-read access to the file. C<"w"> sets the C<FILE_SHARE_WRITE> bit which
-allows other processes to have write access to the file. C<"d"> sets the
-C<FILE_SHARE_DELETE> bit which allows other processes to have delete access
-to the file [ignored under Windows 95].
-
-The default for C<$svShare> is C<"rw"> which provides the same sharing as
-using regular perl C<open()>.
-
-If another process currently has read, write, and/or delete access to
-the file and you don't allow that level of sharing, then your call to
-C<createFile> will fail. If you requested read, write, and/or delete
-access and another process already has the file open but doesn't allow
-that level of sharing, then your call to C<createFile> will fail. Once
-you have the file open, if another process tries to open it with read,
-write, and/or delete access and you don't allow that level of sharing,
-then that process won't be allowed to open the file.
-
-C<$rvhvOptions> is a reference to a hash where any keys must be from
-the list C<qw( Access Create Share Attributes Flags Security Model )>.
-The meaning of the value depends on the key name, as described below.
-Any option values in C<$rvhvOptions> override the settings from
-C<$svAccess> and C<$svShare> if they conflict.
-
-=over
-
-=item Flags => $uFlags
-
-C<$uFlags> is an unsigned value having any of the C<FILE_FLAG_*> or
-C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_*> bits set. Any C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_*> bits set via the
-C<Attributes> option are logically C<or>ed with these bits. Defaults
-to C<0>.
-
-If opening the client side of a named pipe, then you can also specify
-C<SECURITY_SQOS_PRESENT> along with one of the other C<SECURITY_*>
-constants to specify the security quality of service to be used.
-
-=item Attributes => $sAttributes
-
-A string of zero or more characters from C<"achorst"> [see C<attrLetsToBits>
-for more information] which are converted to C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_*> bits to
-be set in the C<$uFlags> argument passed to C<CreateFile>.
-
-=item Security => $pSecurityAttributes
-
-C<$pSecurityAttributes> should contain a C<SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES> structure
-packed into a string or C<[]> [the default].
-
-=item Model => $hModelFile
-
-C<$hModelFile> should contain a handle opened with C<GENERIC_READ>
-access to a model file from which file attributes and extended attributes
-are to be copied. Or C<$hModelFile> can be C<0> [the default].
-
-=item Access => $sAccess
-
-=item Access => $uAccess
-
-C<$sAccess> should be a string of zero or more characters from
-C<"qrw"> specifying the type of access desired: "query" or C<0>,
-"read" or C<GENERIC_READ> [the default], or "write" or
-C<GENERIC_WRITE>.
-
-C<$uAccess> should be an unsigned value containing bits set to
-indicate the type of access desired. C<GENERIC_READ> is the default.
-
-=item Create => $sCreate
-
-=item Create => $uCreate
-
-C<$sCreate> should be a string constaing zero or one character from
-C<"ktn"> and zero or one character from C<"ce">. These stand for
-"Keep if exists", "Truncate if exists", "New file only", "Create if
-none", and "Existing file only". These are translated into a
-C<$uCreate> value.
-
-C<$uCreate> should be one of C<OPEN_ALWAYS>, C<OPEN_EXISTING>,
-C<TRUNCATE_EXISTING>, C<CREATE_ALWAYS>, or C<CREATE_NEW>.
-
-=item Share => $sShare
-
-=item Share => $uShare
-
-C<$sShare> should be a string with zero or more characters from
-C<"rwd"> that is translated into a C<$uShare> value. C<"rw"> is
-the default.
-
-C<$uShare> should be an unsigned value having zero or more of the
-following bits set: C<FILE_SHARE_READ>, C<FILE_SHARE_WRITE>, and
-C<FILE_SHARE_DELETE>. C<FILE_SHARE_READ|FILE_SHARE_WRITE> is the
-default.

-=item getLogicalDrives
-
-=item C<@roots= getLogicalDrives()>
-
-Returns the paths to the root directories of all logical drives
-currently defined. This includes all types of drive lettters, such
-as floppies, CD-ROMs, hard disks, and network shares. A typical
-return value on a poorly equipped computer would be C<("A:\\","C:\\")>.
-
-=item CloseHandle
-
-=item C<CloseHandle( $hObject )>
-
-Closes a Win32 native handle, such as one opened via C<CreateFile>.
-Like most routines, returns a true value if successful and a false
-value [and sets C<$^E> and C<regLastError()>] on failure.
-
-=item CopyFile
-
-=item C<CopyFile( $sOldFileName, $sNewFileName, $bFailIfExists )>
-
-C<$sOldFileName> is the path to the file to be copied.
-C<$sNewFileName> is the path to where the file should be copied.
-Note that you can B<NOT> just specify a path to a directory in
-C<$sNewFileName> to copy the file to that directory using the
-same file name.
-
-If C<$bFailIfExists> is true and C<$sNewFileName> is the path to
-a file that already exists, then C<CopyFile> will fail. If
-C<$bFailIfExists> is falsea, then the copy of the C<$sOldFileNmae>
-file will overwrite the C<$sNewFileName> file if it already exists.
-
-Like most routines, returns a true value if successful and a false
-value [and sets C<$^E> and C<regLastError()>] on failure.
-
-=item CreateFile
-
-=item C<$hObject= CreateFile( $sPath, $uAccess, $uShare, $pSecAttr, $uCreate, $uFlags, $hModel )>
-
-On failure, C<$hObject> gets set to a false value and C<$^E> and
-C<fileLastError()> are set to the reason for the failure. Otherwise,
-C<$hObject> gets set to a Win32 native file handle which is always a
-true value [returns C<"0 but true"> in the impossible(?) case of the
-handle having a value of C<0>].
-
-C<$sPath> is the path to the file [or device, etc.] to be opened.
-
-C<$sPath> can use C<"/"> or C<"\\"> as path delimiters and can even
-mix the two. We will usually only use C<"/"> in our examples since
-using C<"\\"> is usually harder to read.
-
-Under Windows NT, C<$sPath> can start with C<"//?/"> to allow the use
-of paths longer than C<MAX_PATH> [for UNC paths, replace the leading
-C<"//"> with C<"//?/UNC/">, as in C<"//?/UNC/Server/Share/Dir/File.Ext">].
-
-C<$sPath> can start with C<"//./"> to indicate that the rest of the
-path is the name of a "DOS device." You can use C<QueryDosDevice>
-to list all current DOS devices and can add or delete them with
-C<DefineDosDevice>. If you get the source-code distribution of this
-module from CPAN, then it includes an example script, F<ex/ListDevs.plx>
-that will list all current DOS devices and their "native" definition.
-Again, note that this doesn't work under Win95 nor Win98.
-
-The most common such DOS devices include:

-=item C<"//./PhysicalDrive0">
-
-Your entire first hard disk. Doesn't work under Windows 95. This
-allows you to read or write raw sectors of your hard disk and to use
-C<DeviceIoControl> to perform miscellaneous queries and operations
-to the hard disk. Writing raw sectors and certain other operations
-can seriously damage your files or the function of your computer.
-
-Locking this for exclusive access [by specifying C<0> for C<$uShare>]
-doesn't prevent access to the partitions on the disk nor their file
-systems. So other processes can still access any raw sectors within
-a partition and can use the file system on the disk as usual.
-
-=item C<"//./C:">
-
-Your F<C:> partition. Doesn't work under Windows 95. This allows
-you to read or write raw sectors of that partition and to use

-to the partition. Writing raw sectors and certain other operations
-can seriously damage your files or the function of your computer.
-
-Locking this for exclusive access doesn't prevent access to the
-physical drive that the partition is on so other processes can
-still access the raw sectors that way. Locking this for exclusive

-even prevents the current process from accessing the file system
-on that partition.

-=item C<"//./A:">
-
-The raw floppy disk. Doesn't work under Windows 95. This allows

-C<$uAccess> is an unsigned value with bits set indicating the
-type of access desired. Usually either C<0> ["query" access],
-C<GENERIC_READ>, C<GENERIC_WRITE>, C<GENERIC_READ|GENERIC_WRITE>,
-or C<GENERIC_ALL>. More specific types of access can be specified,
-such as C<FILE_APPEND_DATA> or C<FILE_READ_EA>.
-
-C<$uShare> controls how the file is shared, that is, whether other
-processes can have read, write, and/or delete access to the file while
-we have it opened. C<$uShare> is an unsigned value with zero or more
-of these bits set: C<FILE_SHARE_READ>, C<FILE_SHARE_WRITE>, and

-
-then you can set C<$pSecAttr> via:

-C<$uCreate> is one of the following values: C<OPEN_ALWAYS>,
-C<OPEN_EXISTING>, C<TRUNCATE_EXISTING>, C<CREATE_ALWAYS>, and
-C<CREATE_NEW>.
-
-C<$uFlags> is an unsigned value with zero or more bits set indicating
-attributes to associate with the file [C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_*> values] or
-special options [C<FILE_FLAG_*> values].
-
-If opening the client side of a named pipe, then you can also set
-C<$uFlags> to include C<SECURITY_SQOS_PRESENT> along with one of the
-other C<SECURITY_*> constants to specify the security quality of
-service to be used.
-
-C<$hModel> is C<0> [or C<[]>, both of which mean C<NULL>] or a Win32
-native handle opened with C<GENERIC_READ> access to a model file from
-which file attributes and extended attributes are to be copied if a
-new file gets created.
-
-Examples:
-
- $hFlop= CreateFile( "//./A:", GENERIC_READ(),
- FILE_SHARE_READ(), [], OPEN_EXISTING(), 0, [] )
- or die "Can't prevent others from writing to floppy: $^E\n";
- $hDisk= CreateFile( $sFilePath, FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES(),
- FILE_SHARE_READ()|FILE_SHARE_WRITE(), [], OPEN_EXISTING(), 0, [] )
- or die "Can't read attributes of $sFilePath: $^E\n";
- $hTemp= CreateFile( "$ENV{Temp}/temp.$$", GENERIC_WRITE(), 0,
- CREATE_NEW(), FILE_FLAG_DELETE_ON_CLOSE()|attrLetsToBits("hst"), [] )
- or die "Can't create temporary file, temp.$$: $^E\n";
-
-=item DefineDosDevice
-
-=item C<DefineDosDevice( $uFlags, $sDosDeviceName, $sTargetPath )>
-
-Defines a new DOS device, overrides the current definition of a DOS
-device, or deletes a definition of a DOS device. Like most routines,
-returns a true value if successful and a false value [and sets C<$^E>
-and C<regLastError()>] on failure.
-
-C<$sDosDeviceName> is the name of a DOS device for which we'd like
-to add or delete a definition.
-
-C<$uFlags> is an unsigned value with zero or more of the following
-bits set:
-
-=over
-
-=item C<DDD_RAW_TARGET_PATH>
-
-Indicates that C<$sTargetPath> will be a raw Windows NT object name.
-This usually means that C<$sTargetPath> starts with C<"\\Device\\">.
-Note that you cannot use C<"/"> in place of C<"\\"> in raw target path
-names.
-
-=item C<DDD_REMOVE_DEFINITION>
-
-Requests that a definition be deleted. If C<$sTargetPath> is
-C<[]> [for C<NULL>], then the most recently added definition for
-C<$sDosDeviceName> is removed. Otherwise the most recently added
-definition matching C<$sTargetPath> is removed.
-
-If the last definition is removed, then the DOS device name is
-also deleted.
-
-=item C<DDD_EXACT_MATCH_ON_REMOVE>
-
-When deleting a definition, this bit causes each C<$sTargetPath> to
-be compared to the full-length definition when searching for the most
-recently added match. If this bit is not set, then C<$sTargetPath>
-only needs to match a prefix of the definition.
-
-=back
-
-C<$sTargetPath> is the DOS device's specific definition that you
-wish to add or delete. For C<DDD_RAW_TARGET_PATH>, these usually
-start with C<"\\Device\\">. If the C<DDD_RAW_TARGET_PATH> bit is
-not set, then C<$sTargetPath> is just an ordinary path to some file
-or directory, providing the functionality of the B<subst> command.
-
-=item DeleteFile
-
-=item C<DeleteFile( $sFileName )>
-
-Deletes the named file. Compared to Perl's C<unlink>, C<DeleteFile>
-has the advantage of not deleting read-only files. For B<some>
-versions of Perl, C<unlink> silently calls C<chmod> whether it needs
-to or not before deleting the file so that files that you have
-protected by marking them as read-only are not always protected from
-Perl's C<unlink>.
-
-Like most routines, returns a true value if successful and a false
-value [and sets C<$^E> and C<regLastError()>] on failure.
-
-=item DeviceIoControl
-
-=item C<DeviceIoControl( $hDevice, $uIoControlCode, $pInBuf, $lInBuf, $opOutBuf, $lOutBuf, $olRetBytes, $pOverlapped )>
-
-Requests a special operation on an I/O [input/output] device, such
-as ejecting a tape or formatting a disk. Like most routines, returns
-a true value if successful and a false value [and sets C<$^E> and
-C<regLastError()>] on failure.
-
-C<$hDevice> is a Win32 native file handle to a device [return value
-from C<CreateFile>].
-
-C<$uIoControlCode> is an unsigned value [a C<IOCTL_*> or C<FSCTL_*>
-constant] indicating the type query or other operation to be performed.
-
-C<$pInBuf> is C<[]> [for C<NULL>] or a data structure packed into a
-string. The type of data structure depends on the C<$uIoControlCode>
-value. C<$lInBuf> is C<0> or the length of the structure in
-C<$pInBuf>. If C<$pInBuf> is not C<[]> and C<$lInBuf> is C<0>, then
-C<$lInBuf> will automatically be set to C<length($pInBuf)> for you.
-
-C<$opOutBuf> is C<[]> [for C<NULL>] or will be set to contain a
-returned data structure packed into a string. C<$lOutBuf> indicates
-how much space to allocate in C<$opOutBuf> for C<DeviceIoControl> to
-store the data structure. If C<$lOutBuf> is a number and C<$opOutBuf>
-already has a buffer allocated for it that is larger than C<$lOutBuf>
-bytes, then this larger buffer size will be passed to C<DeviceIoControl>.
-However, you can force a specific buffer size to be passed to
-C<DeviceIoControl> by prepending a C<"="> to the front of C<$lOutBuf>.
-
-C<$olRetBytes> is C<[]> or is a scalar to receive the number of bytes
-written to C<$opOutBuf>. Even when C<$olRetBytes> is C<[]>, a valid
-pointer to a C<DWORD> [and not C<NULL>] is passed to C<DeviceIoControl>.
-In this case, C<[]> just means that you don't care about the value
-that might be written to C<$olRetBytes>, which is usually the case
-since you can usually use C<length($opOutBuf)> instead.
-
-C<$pOverlapped> is C<[]> or is a C<OVERLAPPED> structure packed into
-a string. This is only useful if C<$hDevice> was opened with the
-C<FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED> flag set.
-
-=item FdGetOsFHandle
-
-=item C<$hNativeHandle= FdGetOsFHandle( $ivFd )>
-
-C<FdGetOsFHandle> simply calls C<_get_osfhandle()>. It was renamed
-to better fit in with the rest the function names of this module,
-in particular to distinguish it from C<GetOsFHandle>. It takes an
-integer file descriptor [as from Perl's C<fileno>] and returns the
-Win32 native file handle associated with that file descriptor or
-C<INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE> if C<$ivFd> is not an open file descriptor.
-
-When you call Perl's C<open> to set a Perl file handle [like C<STDOUT>],
-Perl calls C's C<fopen> to set a stdio C<FILE *>. C's C<fopen> calls
-something like Unix's C<open>, that is, Win32's C<_sopen>, to get an
-integer file descriptor [where 0 is for C<STDIN>, 1 for C<STDOUT>, etc.].
-Win32's C<_sopen> calls C<CreateFile> to set a C<HANDLE>, a Win32 native
-file handle. So every Perl file handle [like C<STDOUT>] has an integer
-file descriptor associated with it that you can get via C<fileno>. And,
-under Win32, every file descriptor has a Win32 native file handle
-associated with it. C<FdGetOsFHandle> lets you get access to that.
-
-C<$hNativeHandle> is set to C<INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE> [and
-C<lastFileError()> and C<$^E> are set] if C<FdGetOsFHandle> fails.
-See also C<GetOsFHandle> which provides a friendlier interface.
-
-=item fileConstant
-
-=item C<$value= fileConstant( $sConstantName )>
-
-Fetch the value of a constant. Returns C<undef> if C<$sConstantName>
-is not the name of a constant supported by this module. Never sets
-C<$!> nor C<$^E>.
-
-This function is rarely used since you will usually get the value of a
-constant by having that constant imported into your package by listing
-the constant name in the C<use Win32API::File> statement and then
-simply using the constant name in your code [perhaps followed by
-C<()>]. This function is useful for verifying constant names not in
-Perl code, for example, after prompting a user to type in a constant
-name.
-
-=item fileLastError
-
-=item C<$svError= fileLastError();>
-
-=item C<fileLastError( $uError );>
-
-Returns the last error encountered by a routine from this module.
-It is just like C<$^E> except it isn't changed by anything except
-routines from this module. Ideally you could just use C<$^E>, but
-current versions of Perl often overwrite C<$^E> before you get a
-chance to check it and really old versions of Perl don't really
-support C<$^E> under Win32.
-
-Just like C<$^E>, in a numeric context C<fileLastError()> returns
-the numeric error value while in a string context it returns a
-text description of the error [actually it returns a Perl scalar
-that contains both values so C<$x= fileLastError()> causes C<$x>
-to give different values in string vs. numeric contexts].
-
-The last form sets the error returned by future calls to
-C<fileLastError()> and should not be used often. C<$uError> must
-be a numeric error code. Also returns the dual-valued version
-of C<$uError>.
-
-=item GetDriveType
-
-=item C<$uDriveType= GetDriveType( $sRootPath )>
-
-Takes a string giving the path to the root directory of a file system
-[called a "drive" because every file system is assigned a "drive letter"]
-and returns an unsigned value indicating the type of drive the file
-system is on. The return value should be one of:
-
-=over
-
-=item C<DRIVE_UNKNOWN>
-
-None of the following.
-
-=item C<DRIVE_NO_ROOT_DIR>
-
-A "drive" that does not have a file system. This can be a drive letter
-that hasn't been defined or a drive letter assigned to a partition
-that hasn't been formatted yet.
-
-=item C<DRIVE_REMOVABLE>
-
-A floppy diskette drive or other removable media drive, but not a CD-ROM
-drive.
-
-=item C<DRIVE_FIXED>
-
-An ordinary hard disk partition.
-
-=item C<DRIVE_REMOTE>
-
-A network share.
-
-=item C<DRIVE_CDROM>
-
-A CD-ROM drive.
-
-=item C<DRIVE_RAMDISK>
-
-A "ram disk" or memory-resident virtual file system used for high-speed
-access to small amounts of temporary file space.
-
-=back
-
-=item GetFileAttributes
-
-=item C<$uAttrs = GetFileAttributes( $sPath )>
-
-Takes a path string and returns an unsigned value with attribute flags.
-If it fails, it returns INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES, otherwise it can be
-one or more of the following values:
-
-=over
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE>
-
-The file or directory is an archive file or directory. Applications use
-this attribute to mark files for backup or removal.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_COMPRESSED>
-
-The file or directory is compressed. For a file, this means that all of
-the data in the file is compressed. For a directory, this means that
-compression is the default for newly created files and subdirectories.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DEVICE>
-
-Reserved; do not use.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY>
-
-The handle identifies a directory.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ENCRYPTED>
-
-The file or directory is encrypted. For a file, this means that all data
-streams in the file are encrypted. For a directory, this means that
-encryption is the default for newly created files and subdirectories.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN>
-
-The file or directory is hidden. It is not included in an ordinary directory
-listing.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL>
-
-The file or directory has no other attributes set. This attribute is valid
-only if used alone.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NOT_CONTENT_INDEXED>
-
-The file will not be indexed by the content indexing service.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_OFFLINE>
-
-The data of the file is not immediately available. This attribute indicates
-that the file data has been physically moved to offline storage. This
-attribute is used by Remote Storage, the hierarchical storage management
-software. Applications should not arbitrarily change this attribute.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY>
-
-The file or directory is read-only. Applications can read the file but cannot
-write to it or delete it. In the case of a directory, applications cannot
-delete it.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT>
-
-The file or directory has an associated reparse point.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SPARSE_FILE>
-
-The file is a sparse file.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM>
-
-The file or directory is part of, or is used exclusively by, the operating
-system.
-
-=item C<FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY>
-
-The file is being used for temporary storage. File systems avoid writing
-data back to mass storage if sufficient cache memory is available, because
-often the application deletes the temporary file shortly after the handle is
-closed. In that case, the system can entirely avoid writing the data.
-Otherwise, the data will be written after the handle is closed.
-
-=back
-
-=item GetFileType
-
-=item C<$uFileType= GetFileType( $hFile )>
-
-Takes a Win32 native file handle and returns a C<FILE_TYPE_*> constant
-indicating the type of the file opened on that handle:
-
-=over
-
-=item C<FILE_TYPE_UNKNOWN>
-
-None of the below. Often a special device.
-
-=item C<FILE_TYPE_DISK>
-
-An ordinary disk file.
-
-=item C<FILE_TYPE_CHAR>
-
-What Unix would call a "character special file", that is, a device that
-works on character streams such as a printer port or a console.
-
-=item C<FILE_TYPE_PIPE>
-
-Either a named or anonymous pipe.
-
-=back
-
-=item getFileSize
-
-=item C<$size= getFileSize( $hFile )>
-
-This is a Perl-friendly wrapper for the C<GetFileSize> (below) API call.
-
-It takes a Win32 native file handle and returns the size in bytes. Since the
-size can be a 64 bit value, on non 64 bit integer Perls the value returned will
-be an object of type C<Math::BigInt>.
-
-=item GetFileSize
-
-=item C<$iSizeLow= GetFileSize($win32Handle, $iSizeHigh)>
-
-Returns the size of a file pointed to by C<$win32Handle>, optionally storing
-the high order 32 bits into C<$iSizeHigh> if it is not C<[]>. If $iSizeHigh is
-C<[]>, a non-zero value indicates success. Otherwise, on failure the return
-value will be C<0xffffffff> and C<fileLastError()> will not be C<NO_ERROR>.
-
-=item GetOverlappedResult
-
-=item C<$bRetval= GetOverlappedResult( $win32Handle, $pOverlapped,
- $numBytesTransferred, $bWait )>
-
-Used for asynchronous IO in Win32 to get the result of a pending IO operation,
-such as when a file operation returns C<ERROR_IO_PENDING>. Returns a false
-value on failure. The C<$overlapped> structure and C<$numBytesTransferred>
-will be modified with the results of the operation.
-
-As far as creating the C<$pOverlapped> structure, you are currently on your own.
-
-See L<http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dllproc/base/getoverlappedresult.asp> for more information.
-
-=item GetLogicalDrives
-
-=item C<$uDriveBits= GetLogicalDrives()>
-
-Returns an unsigned value with one bit set for each drive letter currently
-defined. If "A:" is currently a valid drive letter, then the C<1> bit
-will be set in C<$uDriveBits>. If "B:" is valid, then the C<2> bit will
-be set. If "Z:" is valid, then the C<2**26> [C<0x4000000>] bit will be
-set.
-
-=item GetLogicalDriveStrings
-
-=item C<$olOutLength= GetLogicalDriveStrings( $lBufSize, $osBuffer )>
-
-For each currently defined drive letter, a C<'\0'>-terminated string
-of the path to the root of its file system is constructed. All of
-these strings are concatenated into a single larger string and an
-extra terminating C<'\0'> is added. This larger string is returned
-in C<$osBuffer>. Note that this includes drive letters that have
-been defined but that have no file system, such as drive letters
-assigned to unformatted partitions.
-
-C<$lBufSize> is the size of the buffer to allocate to store this
-list of strings. C<26*4+1> is always sufficient and should usually
-be used.
-
-C<$osBuffer> is a scalar to be set to contain the constructed string.
-
-C<$olOutLength> is the number of bytes actually written to C<$osBuffer>
-but C<length($osBuffer)> can also be used to determine this.
-
-For example, on a poorly equipped computer,
-
- GetLogicalDriveStrings( 4*26+1, $osBuffer );
-
-might set C<$osBuffer> to the 9-character string, C<"A:\\\0C:\\\0\0">.
-
-=item GetHandleInformation
-
-=item C<GetHandleInformation( $hObject, $ouFlags )>
-
-Retrieves the flags associated with a Win32 native file handle or object
-handle.
-
-C<$hObject> is an open Win32 native file handle or an open Win32 native
-handle to some other type of object.
-
-C<$ouFlags> will be set to an unsigned value having zero or more of
-the bits C<HANDLE_FLAG_INHERIT> and C<HANDLE_FLAG_PROTECT_FROM_CLOSE>
-set. See the C<":HANDLE_FLAG_"> export class for the meanings of these
-bits.
-
-=item GetOsFHandle
-
-=item C<$hNativeHandle= GetOsFHandle( FILE )>
-
-Takes a Perl file handle [like C<STDIN>] and returns the Win32 native
-file handle associated with it. See C<FdGetOsFHandle> for more
-information about Win32 native file handles.
-
-C<$hNativeHandle> is set to a false value [and C<lastFileError()> and
-C<$^E> are set] if C<GetOsFHandle> fails. C<GetOsFHandle> returns
-C<"0 but true"> in the impossible(?) case of the handle having a value
-of C<0>.
-
-=item GetVolumeInformation
-
-=item C<GetVolumeInformation( $sRootPath, $osVolName, $lVolName, $ouSerialNum, $ouMaxNameLen, $ouFsFlags, $osFsType, $lFsType )>
-
-Gets information about a file system volume, returning a true
-value if successful. On failure, returns a false value and sets
-C<fileLastError()> and C<$^E>.
-
-C<$sRootPath> is a string specifying the path to the root of the file system,
-for example, C<"C:/">.
-
-C<$osVolName> is a scalar to be set to the string representing the
-volume name, also called the file system label. C<$lVolName> is the
-number of bytes to allocate for the C<$osVolName> buffer [see
-L<Buffer Sizes> for more information].
-
-C<$ouSerialNum> is C<[]> [for C<NULL>] or will be set to the numeric
-value of the volume's serial number.
-
-C<$ouMaxNameLen> is C<[]> [for C<NULL>] or will be set to the maximum
-length allowed for a file name or directory name within the file system.
-
-C<$osFsType> is a scalar to be set to the string representing the
-file system type, such as C<"FAT"> or C<"NTFS">. C<$lFsType> is the
-number of bytes to allocate for the C<$osFsType> buffer [see
-L<Buffer Sizes> for more information].
-
-C<$ouFsFlags> is C<[]> [for C<NULL>] or will be set to an unsigned integer
-with bits set indicating properties of the file system:
-
-=over
-
-=item C<FS_CASE_IS_PRESERVED>
-
-The file system preserves the case of file names [usually true].
-That is, it doesn't change the case of file names such as forcing
-them to upper- or lower-case.
-
-=item C<FS_CASE_SENSITIVE>
-
-The file system supports the ability to not ignore the case of file
-names [but might ignore case the way you are using it]. That is, the
-file system has the ability to force you to get the letter case of a
-file's name exactly right to be able to open it. This is true for
-"NTFS" file systems, even though case in file names is usually still
-ignored.
-
-=item C<FS_UNICODE_STORED_ON_DISK>
-
-The file system preserves Unicode in file names [true for "NTFS"].
-
-=item C<FS_PERSISTENT_ACLS>
-
-The file system supports setting Access Control Lists on files [true
-for "NTFS"].
-
-=item C<FS_FILE_COMPRESSION>
-
-The file system supports compression on a per-file basis [true for
-"NTFS"].
-
-=item C<FS_VOL_IS_COMPRESSED>
-
-The entire file system is compressed such as via "DoubleSpace".
-
-=back
-
-=item IsRecognizedPartition
-
-=item C<IsRecognizedPartition( $ivPartitionType )>
-
-Takes a partition type and returns whether that partition type is
-supported under Win32. C<$ivPartitonType> is an integer value as from
-the operating system byte of a hard disk's DOS-compatible partition
-table [that is, a partition table for x86-based Win32, not, for
-example, one used with Windows NT for Alpha processors]. For example,
-the C<PartitionType> member of the C<PARTITION_INFORMATION> structure.
-
-Common values for C<$ivPartitionType> include C<PARTITION_FAT_12==1>,
-C<PARTITION_FAT_16==4>, C<PARTITION_EXTENDED==5>, C<PARTITION_FAT32==0xB>.
-
-=item IsContainerPartition
-
-=item C<IsContainerPartition( $ivPartitionType )>
-
-Takes a partition type and returns whether that partition is a
-"container" partition that is supported under Win32, that is, whether
-it is an "extended" partition that can contain "logical" partitions.
-C<$ivPartitonType> is as for C<IsRecognizedPartition>.
-
-=item MoveFile
-
-=item C<MoveFile( $sOldName, $sNewName )>
-
-Renames a file or directory. C<$sOldName> is the name of the existing
-file or directory that is to be renamed. C<$sNewName> is the new name
-to give the file or directory. Returns a true value if the move
-succeeds. For failure, returns a false value and sets
-C<fileLastErorr()> and C<$^E> to the reason for the failure.
-
-Files can be "renamed" between file systems and the file contents and
-some attributes will be moved. Directories can only be renamed within
-one file system. If there is already a file or directory named
-C<$sNewName>, then C<MoveFile> will fail.
-
-=item MoveFileEx
-
-=item C<MoveFileEx( $sOldName, $sNewName, $uFlags )>
-
-Renames a file or directory. C<$sOldName> is the name of the existing
-file or directory that is to be renamed. C<$sNewName> is the new name
-to give the file or directory. Returns a true value if the move
-succeeds. For failure, returns a false value and sets
-C<fileLastErorr()> and C<$^E> to the reason for the failure.
-
-C<$uFlags> is an unsigned value with zero or more of the following bits set:
-
-=over
-
-=item C<MOVEFILE_REPLACE_EXISTING>
-
-If this bit is set and a file [but not a directory] named C<$sNewName>
-already exists, then it will be replaced by C<$sOldName>. If this bit
-is not set then C<MoveFileEx> will fail rather than replace an existing
-C<$sNewName>.
-
-=item C<MOVEFILE_COPY_ALLOWED>
-
-Allows files [but not directories] to be moved between file systems
-by copying the C<$sOldName> file data and some attributes to
-C<$sNewName> and then deleting C<$sOldName>. If this bit is not set
-[or if C<$sOldName> denotes a directory] and C<$sNewName> refers to a
-different file system than C<$sOldName>, then C<MoveFileEx> will fail.
-
-=item C<MOVEFILE_DELAY_UNTIL_REBOOT>
-
-Preliminary verifications are made and then an entry is added to the
-Registry to cause the rename [or delete] operation to be done the
-next time this copy of the operating system is booted [right after
-any automatic file system checks have completed]. This is not
-supported under Windows 95.
-
-When this bit is set, C<$sNewName> can be C<[]> [for C<NULL>] to
-indicate that C<$sOldName> should be deleted during the next boot
-rather than renamed.
-
-Setting both the C<MOVEFILE_COPY_ALLOWED> and
-C<MOVEFILE_DELAY_UNTIL_REBOOT> bits will cause C<MoveFileEx> to fail.
-
-=item C<MOVEFILE_WRITE_THROUGH>
-
-Ensures that C<MoveFileEx> won't return until the operation has
-finished and been flushed to disk. This is not supported under
-Windows 95. Only affects file renames to another file system,
-forcing a buffer flush at the end of the copy operation.

-
-=item OsFHandleOpen
-
-=item C<OsFHandleOpen( FILE, $hNativeHandle, $sMode )>
-
-Opens a Perl file handle based on an already open Win32 native
-file handle [much like C's C<fdopen()> does with a file descriptor].
-Returns a true value if the open operation succeeded. For failure,
-returns a false value and sets C<$!> [and possibly C<fileLastError()>
-and C<$^E>] to the reason for the failure.
-
-C<FILE> is a Perl file handle [in any of the supported forms, a
-bareword, a string, a typeglob, or a reference to a typeglob] that
-will be opened. If C<FILE> is already open, it will automatically
-be closed before it is reopened.
-
-C<$hNativeHandle> is an open Win32 native file handle, probably the
-return value from C<CreateFile> or C<createFile>.
-
-C<$sMode> is string of zero or more letters from C<"rwatb">. These
-are translated into a combination C<O_RDONLY> [C<"r">], C<O_WRONLY>
-[C<"w">], C<O_RDWR> [C<"rw">], C<O_APPEND> [C<"a">], C<O_TEXT>
-[C<"t">], and C<O_BINARY> [C<"b">] flags [see the L<Fcntl> module]
-that is passed to C<OsFHandleOpenFd>. Currently only C<O_APPEND>
-and C<O_TEXT> have any significance.
-
-Also, a C<"r"> and/or C<"w"> in C<$sMode> is used to decide how the
-file descriptor is converted into a Perl file handle, even though this
-doesn't appear to make a difference. One of the following is used:
-
- open( FILE, "<&=".$ivFd ) # "r" w/o "w"
- open( FILE, ">&=".$ivFd ) # "w" w/o "r"
- open( FILE, "+<&=".$ivFd ) # both "r" and "w"
-
-C<OsFHandleOpen> eventually calls the Win32-specific C routine
-C<_open_osfhandle()> or Perl's "improved" version called

-C<_open_osfhandle()> is called which will fail if
-C<GetFileType($hNativeHandle)> would return C<FILE_TYPE_UNKNOWN>. For
-Perl5.005 and later, C<OsFHandleOpen> calls C<win32_open_osfhandle()>
-from the Perl DLL which doesn't have this restriction.
-
-=item OsFHandleOpenFd
-
-=item C<$ivFD= OsFHandleOpenFd( $hNativeHandle, $uMode )>
-
-Opens a file descriptor [C<$ivFD>] based on an already open Win32
-native file handle, C<$hNativeHandle>. This just calls the
-Win32-specific C routine C<_open_osfhandle()> or Perl's "improved"
-version called C<win32_open_osfhandle()>. Prior to Perl5.005 and in Cygwin
-Perl, C's C<_open_osfhandle()> is called which will fail if
-C<GetFileType($hNativeHandle)> would return C<FILE_TYPE_UNKNOWN>. For
-Perl5.005 and later, C<OsFHandleOpenFd> calls C<win32_open_osfhandle()> from
-the Perl DLL which doesn't have this restriction.
-
-C<$uMode> the logical combination of zero or more C<O_*> constants
-exported by the C<Fcntl> module. Currently only C<O_APPEND> and
-C<O_TEXT> have any significance.
-
-C<$ivFD> will be non-negative if the open operation was successful.
-For failure, C<-1> is returned and C<$!> [and possibly
-C<fileLastError()> and C<$^E>] is set to the reason for the failure.
-
-=item QueryDosDevice
-
-=item C<$olTargetLen= QueryDosDevice( $sDosDeviceName, $osTargetPath, $lTargetBuf )>
-
-Looks up the definition of a given "DOS" device name, yielding the
-active Windows NT native device name along with any currently dormant
-definitions.
-
-C<$sDosDeviceName> is the name of the "DOS" device whose definitions
-we want. For example, C<"C:">, C<"COM1">, or C<"PhysicalDrive0">.
-If C<$sDosDeviceName> is C<[]> [for C<NULL>], the list of all DOS
-device names is returned instead.
-
-C<$osTargetPath> will be assigned a string containing the list of
-definitions. The definitions are each C<'\0'>-terminate and are
-concatenated into the string, most recent first, with an extra C<'\0'>
-at the end of the whole string [see C<GetLogicalDriveStrings> for
-a sample of this format].
-
-C<$lTargetBuf> is the size [in bytes] of the buffer to allocate for
-C<$osTargetPath>. See L<Buffer Sizes> for more information.
-
-C<$olTargetLen> is set to the number of bytes written to
-C<$osTargetPath> but you can also use C<length($osTargetPath)>
-to determine this.
-
-For failure, C<0> is returned and C<fileLastError()> and C<$^E> are
-set to the reason for the failure.
-
-=item ReadFile
-
-=item C<ReadFile( $hFile, $opBuffer, $lBytes, $olBytesRead, $pOverlapped )>
-
-Reads bytes from a file or file-like device. Returns a true value if
-the read operation was successful. For failure, returns a false value
-and sets C<fileLastError()> and C<$^E> for the reason for the failure.
-
-C<$hFile> is a Win32 native file handle that is already open to the
-file or device to read from.
-
-C<$opBuffer> will be set to a string containing the bytes read.
-
-C<$lBytes> is the number of bytes you would like to read.
-C<$opBuffer> is automatically initialized to have a buffer large
-enough to hold that many bytes. Unlike other buffer sizes, C<$lBytes>
-does not need to have a C<"="> prepended to it to prevent a larger
-value to be passed to the underlying Win32 C<ReadFile> API. However,
-a leading C<"="> will be silently ignored, even if Perl warnings are
-enabled.
-
-If C<$olBytesRead> is not C<[]>, it will be set to the actual number
-of bytes read, though C<length($opBuffer)> can also be used to
-determine this.
-
-C<$pOverlapped> is C<[]> or is a C<OVERLAPPED> structure packed
-into a string. This is only useful if C<$hFile> was opened with
-the C<FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED> flag set.
-
-=item SetErrorMode
-
-=item C<$uOldMode= SetErrorMode( $uNewMode )>
-
-Sets the mode controlling system error handling B<and> returns the
-previous mode value. Both C<$uOldMode> and C<$uNewMode> will have
-zero or more of the following bits set:
-
-=over
-
-=item C<SEM_FAILCRITICALERRORS>
-
-If set, indicates that when a critical error is encountered, the call
-that triggered the error fails immediately. Normally this bit is not
-set, which means that a critical error causes a dialogue box to appear
-notifying the desktop user that some application has triggered a
-critical error. The dialogue box allows the desktop user to decide
-whether the critical error is returned to the process, is ignored, or
-the offending operation is retried.
-
-This affects the C<CreateFile> and C<GetVolumeInformation> calls.
-
-Setting this bit is useful for allowing you to check whether a floppy
-diskette is in the floppy drive.
-
-=item C<SEM_NOALIGNMENTFAULTEXCEPT>
-
-If set, this causes memory access misalignment faults to be
-automatically fixed in a manner invisible to the process. This flag
-is ignored on x86-based versions of Windows NT. This flag is not
-supported on Windows 95.
-
-=item C<SEM_NOGPFAULTERRORBOX>
-
-If set, general protection faults do not generate a dialogue box but
-can instead be handled by the process via an exception handler. This
-bit should not be set by programs that don't know how to handle such
-faults.
-
-=item C<SEM_NOOPENFILEERRORBOX>
-
-If set, then when an attempt to continue reading from or writing to
-an already open file [usually on a removable medium like a floppy
-diskette] finds the file no longer available, the call will
-immediately fail. Normally this bit is not set, which means that
-instead a dialogue box will appear notifying the desktop user that
-some application has run into this problem. The dialogue box allows
-the desktop user to decide whether the failure is returned to the
-process, is ignored, or the offending operation is retried.
-
-This affects the C<ReadFile> and C<WriteFile> calls.

-
-=item setFilePointer
-
-=item C<$uNewPos = setFilePointer( $hFile, $ivOffset, $uFromWhere )>
-
-This is a perl-friendly wrapper for the SetFilePointer API (below).
-C<$ivOffset> can be a 64 bit integer or C<Math::BigInt> object if your Perl
-doesn't have 64 bit integers. The return value is the new offset and will
-likewise be a 64 bit integer or a C<Math::BigInt> object.
-
-=item SetFilePointer
-
-=item C<$uNewPos = SetFilePointer( $hFile, $ivOffset, $ioivOffsetHigh, $uFromWhere )>
-
-The native Win32 version of C<seek()>. C<SetFilePointer> sets the
-position within a file where the next read or write operation will
-start from.
-
-C<$hFile> is a Win32 native file handle.
-
-C<$uFromWhere> is either C<FILE_BEGIN>, C<FILE_CURRENT>, or
-C<FILE_END>, indicating that the new file position is being specified
-relative to the beginning of the file, the current file pointer, or
-the end of the file, respectively.
-
-C<$ivOffset> is [if C<$ioivOffsetHigh> is C<[]>] the offset [in bytes]
-to the new file position from the position specified via
-C<$uFromWhere>. If C<$ioivOffsetHigh> is not C<[]>, then C<$ivOffset>
-is converted to an unsigned value to be used as the low-order 4 bytes
-of the offset.
-
-C<$ioivOffsetHigh> can be C<[]> [for C<NULL>] to indicate that you are
-only specifying a 4-byte offset and the resulting file position will
-be 0xFFFFFFFE or less [just under 4GB]. Otherwise C<$ioivOfffsetHigh>
-starts out with the high-order 4 bytes [signed] of the offset and gets
-set to the [unsigned] high-order 4 bytes of the resulting file position.
-
-The underlying C<SetFilePointer> returns C<0xFFFFFFFF> to indicate
-failure, but if C<$ioivOffsetHigh> is not C<[]>, you would also have
-to check C<$^E> to determine whether C<0xFFFFFFFF> indicates an error
-or not. C<Win32API::File::SetFilePointer> does this checking for you
-and returns a false value if and only if the underlying
-C<SetFilePointer> failed. For this reason, C<$uNewPos> is set to
-C<"0 but true"> if you set the file pointer to the beginning of the
-file [or any position with 0 for the low-order 4 bytes].
-
-So the return value will be true if the seek operation was successful.
-For failure, a false value is returned and C<fileLastError()> and
-C<$^E> are set to the reason for the failure.
-
-=item SetHandleInformation
-
-=item C<SetHandleInformation( $hObject, $uMask, $uFlags )>
-
-Sets the flags associated with a Win32 native file handle or object
-handle. Returns a true value if the operation was successful. For
-failure, returns a false value and sets C<fileLastError()> and C<$^E>
-for the reason for the failure.
-
-C<$hObject> is an open Win32 native file handle or an open Win32 native
-handle to some other type of object.
-
-C<$uMask> is an unsigned value having one or more of the bits
-C<HANDLE_FLAG_INHERIT> and C<HANDLE_FLAG_PROTECT_FROM_CLOSE> set.
-Only bits set in C<$uMask> will be modified by C<SetHandleInformation>.
-
-C<$uFlags> is an unsigned value having zero or more of the bits
-C<HANDLE_FLAG_INHERIT> and C<HANDLE_FLAG_PROTECT_FROM_CLOSE> set.
-For each bit set in C<$uMask>, the cooresponding bit in the handle's
-flags is set to the value of the cooresponding bit in C<$uFlags>.
-
-If C<$uOldFlags> were the value of the handle's flags before the
-call to C<SetHandleInformation>, then the value of the handle's
-flags afterward would be:
-
- ( $uOldFlags & ~$uMask ) | ( $uFlags & $uMask )
-
-[at least as far as the C<HANDLE_FLAG_INHERIT> and
-C<HANDLE_FLAG_PROTECT_FROM_CLOSE> bits are concerned.]
-
-See the C<":HANDLE_FLAG_"> export class for the meanings of these bits.
-
-=item WriteFile
-
-=item C<WriteFile( $hFile, $pBuffer, $lBytes, $ouBytesWritten, $pOverlapped )>
-
-Write bytes to a file or file-like device. Returns a true value if
-the operation was successful. For failure, returns a false value and
-sets C<fileLastError()> and C<$^E> for the reason for the failure.
-
-C<$hFile> is a Win32 native file handle that is already open to the
-file or device to be written to.
-
-C<$pBuffer> is a string containing the bytes to be written.
-
-C<$lBytes> is the number of bytes you would like to write. If
-C<$pBuffer> is not at least C<$lBytes> long, C<WriteFile> croaks. You
-can specify C<0> for C<$lBytes> to write C<length($pBuffer)> bytes.
-A leading C<"="> on C<$lBytes> will be silently ignored, even if Perl
-warnings are enabled.
-
-C<$ouBytesWritten> will be set to the actual number of bytes written
-unless you specify it as C<[]>.
-
-C<$pOverlapped> is C<[]> or is an C<OVERLAPPED> structure packed
-into a string. This is only useful if C<$hFile> was opened with
-the C<FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED> flag set.
