All Implemented Interfaces:

BlockDevice

public class WindowsBlockDevice
extends java.lang.Object
implements BlockDevice

This class uses JNI to access block devices under Windows. Typically, the filename must begin with \\?\ for devices. An example would be "\\?\PhysicalDrive0". This class requires WindowsBlockDevice.dll
