SP_DEVICE_INTERFACE_DETAIL_DATA needs a ByVal TCHAR[ANYSIZE_ARRAY] member, which could conceivably be any size. This does not bode well for determining the correct size, however DevicePath should be no longer than MAX_PATH (256).
Tips & Tricks:
On the VB side i could not get a valid result passing nulls to the optional parameters, but passing initialized structures seems to work fine.
Sample Code:
Guid DiskGUID = new Guid(GUID_DEVINTERFACE_DISK);
// We start at the "root" of the device tree and look for all
// devices that match the interface GUID of a disk
IntPtr h = SetupDiGetClassDevs(ref DiskGUID, 0, IntPtr.Zero, DIGCF_PRESENT | DIGCF_DEVICEINTERFACE);
if (h.ToInt32() != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
{
bool Success = true;
int i = 0;
while (Success)
{
// create a Device Interface Data structure
SP_DEVICE_INTERFACE_DATA dia = new SP_DEVICE_INTERFACE_DATA();
dia.cbSize = Marshal.SizeOf(dia);
// start the enumeration
Success = SetupDiEnumDeviceInterfaces(h, IntPtr.Zero, ref DiskGUID, i, ref dia);
if (Success)
{
// build a DevInfo Data structure
SP_DEVINFO_DATA da = new SP_DEVINFO_DATA();
da.cbSize = Marshal.SizeOf(da);
// build a Device Interface Detail Data structure
SP_DEVICE_INTERFACE_DETAIL_DATA didd = new SP_DEVICE_INTERFACE_DETAIL_DATA();
if (IntPtr.Size == 8) // for 64 bit operating systems
didd.cbSize = 8;
else
didd.cbSize = 4 + Marshal.SystemDefaultCharSize; // for 32 bit systems
// now we can get some more detailed information
uint nRequiredSize = 0;
int nBytes = BUFFER_SIZE;
if (SetupDiGetDeviceInterfaceDetail(h, ref dia, ref didd, nBytes, ref nRequiredSize, ref da))
{
// current InstanceID is at the "USBSTOR" level, so we
// need up "move up" one level to get to the "USB" level
IntPtr ptrPrevious;
CM_Get_Parent(out ptrPrevious, da.DevInst, 0);
// Now we get the InstanceID of the USB level device
IntPtr ptrInstanceBuf = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(nBytes);
CM_Get_Device_ID(ptrPrevious, ptrInstanceBuf, nBytes, 0);
string InstanceID = Marshal.PtrToStringAuto(ptrInstanceBuf);

ByVal is a VB keyword that specifies a variable to be passed as a parameter BY VALUE. In other words, if the function or sub changes the value of the internal variable, it does not change the value of the external variable that was passed to it.
