Hi There,

I need to enumerate all devices connected on the system (similiar to that in
the device manager). Could someone point me to the right API or other
source that would allow me to do so?

Regards,

Joshua

I just found this article which might be helpful. I myself have been
investigating accessing device events through .net framework--it is still
work in progress.

Whilst you can probably get access to various devices through a myriad of
API calls, the easiest method if it's available to you would be to look into
WMI - You'll find plenty of examples online of this kind of thing.
Hope this helps,

Mike
