Tim,

I don't know about the plans with the StdLib, but I do remember a long time ago with the old shell there was a protocol that let you translate volume names (mappings) into handles and device paths.

So you could write a simple library that has 2 styles of APIs:

1) Handle + FilePath in Shell mapping with Volume Name out

2) Shell file path with mapping Volume names in and Simple File System handle Out with the file path

a) A device path out version of this is also useful

You can make the lib just error return if the Shell protocol does not exist so you don't make it a requirement. The caller handles that failure as the current working volume/directory case.

Thanks,

Andrew Fish

Following up on my last e-mail, I guess I had the wrong assumption: there doesn’t appear to be a way to resolve mappings within StdLib.

Are there any plans here?

Thanks,
