Disk Administrator Extension Interfaces
|
|
=======================================
|
|
|
|
The extension interfaces have been commented (#ifdef'ed) out. The interfaces
|
|
are defined in the "types" subdirectory.
|
|
|
|
This file contains some information on their design and implementation.
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------Volume Claiming
|
|
|
|
During initialization, all the extension classes are enumerated. Then,
|
|
the following happens:
|
|
|
|
1. for each pre-existing volume, determine all the volume extension
|
|
classes that claim it.
|
|
|
|
2. for each pre-existing formatted volume, determine all the file system
|
|
extension classes that claim it.
|
|
|
|
3. for each hard drive, determine all the hard disk extension classes
|
|
that claim it.
|
|
|
|
For now, this will all be done at start-up time, and not dynamically as
|
|
we need it.
