Can someone please point out why I am getting an 87 error? I am sure
it is obvious, but I am new to C# and seem to be having a lot of
stress understanding managed versus unmanaged code when API calls are
needed!

what is SETUPAPI? is it a dll? If so, you should use the full name
SETUPAPI.dll.
Also, I wouldn't be able to test your code because I don't have that dll.
Do you have a C/C++ header file that you pulled those APIs from? if you do,
that would be extremely helpful in determining if your struct definitions
are correct.

One of the Win32 Function arguments is wrong (error code 87).

ULONG_PTR is a 32 bit pointer, you specified a Int64 (64 bits value).
as a result -
theData.theSize = Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(_SP_DEVINFO_DATA));
will return the wrong size.

Willy,

Thx. Will fix that and try again. Hey do you know of any offical
SetupDi API call examples in VB .NET or C# .NET? Writing in straight
C is where all the examples are on Google, MSDN, etc. How do we
request of Microsoft to do a write-up on this? Maybe a rewrite of
EnumDisks? The official SetupDi API example in the DDK? In .NET C#
or VB? It is only in straight C.

Seems like a look of interest in this based on all the questions
asking for help?

Schor,

The Device management API's are specialized API's written to be used from an interactive management application (more specifically
the "control panel" Devices applets and the Device Manager application), some API's expect a UI (HWND) to send messages to .
Don't expect MSFT will ever release Managed classes wrapping this (and many other) API set.

I would never use these API's from C# (or VB.NET) using PInvoke, instead I would:

1 - use ME C++ to write a managed wrapper class if I need additional functionality not offered by 2
2 - use the System.Management namespace classes and WMI.

Following is a small sample using the latter:

using System;
using System.Management;
// Enum Pnp Registered devices using WMI class Win32_PnPentity
class App {
public static void Main() {
ManagementPath path = new ManagementPath();
ManagementClass devs = null;
path.Server = "."; // local machine
path.NamespacePath = @"root\CIMV2";
path.RelativePath = @"Win32_PnPentity";
using(devs = new ManagementClass(new ManagementScope(path), path, new ObjectGetOptions(null, new TimeSpan(0,0,0,2), true)))
{
ManagementObjectCollection moc = devs.GetInstances();
foreach(ManagementObject mo in moc) {

PropertyDataCollection devsProperties = mo.Properties;
foreach (PropertyData devProperty in devsProperties ) {
Console.WriteLine("Property = {0}\t Value = {1}", devProperty.Name, devProperty.Value);
}
}

}

}
}

Hope this helps.

Willy.
