I have a COM Structured Storage File reader implemented that can open Storage and stream objects, that's all happy. But now I want to be able to copy things from one archive to another and rename things and then write things back to the disk. I haven't even adressed the copy and rename operations because I can't seem to even write changes to disk. I tried calling the Root IStorage object's Commit method and it seems to run fine, but I see no changes. I'm implementing this via PInvoke in C#.NET. Here are applicable code elements:
public void Load(string path)
{
STATSTG[] storageElementInfos = new STATSTG[1];
// Populate our storage object
var result = StgOpenStorage(path, null, STGM.DIRECT | STGM.READWRITE | STGM.SHARE_EXCLUSIVE, IntPtr.Zero, 0, out archive);
// Only proceed if we succeed in populating our SS object
if (result == 0)
{
uint count;
IEnumSTATSTG elements;
archive.EnumElements(0, IntPtr.Zero, 0, out elements);
elements.Next(1, storageElementInfos, out count);
if (count != 0)
{
if ((STGTY)storageElementInfos[0].type == STGTY.STGTY_STORAGE)
{
//create Root Here
var root = storageElementInfos[0];
Root = new StructuredStorageContainer();
Root.element = root;
(Root as StructuredStorageContainer).Load(archive);
}
}
}
}
public void Save()
{
if (Root is StructuredStorageContainer)
{
(Root as StructuredStorageContainer).Save();
}
archive.Commit(0);
}
Making the Change
ListArchive((archive.Root as StructuredStorageContainer), 0);
archive.Root.Name = "Fail";
archive.Save();
The name definition on the StructuredStorageNode Class.
internal System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.STATSTG element;
public string Name
{
get
{
return element.pwcsName;
}
set
{
element.pwcsName = value;
}
}
