Parameters

Parameters	Description
IN PVOID p__PVOID__CdvdBurnerGrabber	Pointer to the CdvdBurnerGrabber object that toolkit allocated before.
OUT PCHAR p__PCHAR__ExceptionText	Pointer to array of CHARs that will be used to store formatted exception description message.
IN ULONG p__ULONG__ExceptionTextSizeInUCHARs	Size of the array of CHARs used to be formatted exception message storage.
OUT PULONG p__PULONG__SystemError	Pointer to ULONG that will contain the system error (if some will occur).
OUT PCDB_FAILURE_INFORMATION p__PCDB_FAILURE_INFORMATION	Pointer to CDB_FAILURE_INFORMATION that will be filled with apropriate values.
IN ULONG p__ULONG__NumberOfSecondsToWait	Number of seconds to wait (not less than the number, maybe more) until the unit would not become into ready state.

Returns

Execution status. EN_SUCCESS if the operation completed successfuly. If the exception number will be EN_SYSTEM_CALL_FAILED, variable that SystemError points to will be filled with system error. If something other then EN_SUCCESS will be returned buffer that ExceptionText will point to will be filled with formatted exception message. If the exception number will be EN_SCSI_CDB_FAILED, CDB_FAILURE_INFORMATION will be filled with apropriate values (CDB that faled, CDB size, SCSI sense data, SCSI sense data size, SCSI transport, device and host adapter status codes).

Description

This function tests is CD/DVD/Blu-Ray/HD-DVD burner device object unit ready or not. This information can be used later to start I/O operations. The only difference between this and simple StarBurn_CdvdBurnerGrabber_TestUnitReady() is that this code passed parameter to wait for unit to become ready. And "simple" code uses default timeout of 20 seconds.

Remarks

Please see the TrackAtOnceFromTree and TrackAtOnceFromFile samples that will demonstrate how ISO9660 or Joliet file system image can be burn on the CD/DVD/Blu-Ray/HD-DVD media and what StarBurn_CdvdBurnerGrabber_TestUnitReady and it's more extended "clone" StarBurn_CdvdBurnerGrabber_TestUnitReadyEx and "double extended" StarBurn_CdvdBurnerGrabber_TestUnitReadyExEx can be used for.

Example

This example allocates CdvdBurnerGrabber object, tests unit ready for 10 seconds (instead of default 20) and destroys the device object after it's not needed any more.

// Do something with CdvdBurnerGrabber device object here...        

// Destroy the CdvdBurnerGrabber

// Just check for pointer (paranoid?)
