Drive Selector

Description

The drive selector gives an Array, that includes all mounted drives on your computer.

Windows

On Windows the tool looks for all logical disks with a name (C:, D:, ...), drives that are not mounted would not be listed in the array.

Linux

On Linux the tool looks in the /mnt folder, because on Linux it is normal to mount USB-Drives etc. to /mnt/xyz

Example Content of the Array

Windows

Index	Content
0	C
1	D
2	X

Linux

Index	Content
0	/mnt/usb-a
1	/mnt/c
2	/mnt/mySecretDrive

HowToUse

The best way to see how the driveSelector is working, look at my driveSelectorTests that I wrote.

Detailed description how to use the drive selector:

1. You need to get the number of Drives that are mounted on your computer, just use getNumberOfDrives().
2. Than you can use getAllDrives and provide an 2-Dim Array, to get all Drives. Provide the 2-Dim Array by reference.
3. Now you have a 2-Dim Array which includes all Drives on the Computer.
4. If you want, you can use the getMasterKeyPath function to get the Path to the encryption/decryption key. The functions needs to Values, 1. The Drive where the Key is stored and 2. A reference to a "String", where the Path should be saved.
