[Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the Virtual Disk Service COM interface is superseded by the Windows Storage Management API.]

Returns property details for all file systems known to VDS.

Syntax

HRESULT QueryFileSystemTypes(
  [out] VDS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE_PROP **ppFileSystemTypeProps,
  [out] LONG                      *plNumberOfFileSystems
);

Parameters

[out] ppFileSystemTypeProps

The address of a pointer to a buffer holding an array of VDS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE_PROP structures. Callers must free the memory for the array and for the pwszIllegalLabelCharSet string by using the CoTaskMemFree function.

Return value

This method can return standard HRESULT values, such as E_INVALIDARG or E_OUTOFMEMORY, and VDS-specific return values. It can also return converted system error codes using the HRESULT_FROM_WIN32 macro. Errors can originate from VDS itself or from the underlying VDS provider that is being used. Possible return values include the following.
