Obtaining info about storage devices

---

General functions

• Get USB port path of storage device (Windows and Linux only)
• Get mountpoints list (paths)
• Get partitions list (paths and labels)
• Get relations between partitions and mountpoints
• Mounting/Unmounting
• Interface for I/O ops with storage devices

Supported Operating Systems

• Linux (most distros)
• Microsoft Windows 7 and later
• MacOSX

Build

C++

The project is written on C++14

Compiler

OS	Requirements
Linux	g++5 or higher, 64 bit
Windows	msvc2015, 32 bit
OSX	clang++, 64 bit

Dependencies

Qt

• Download the Qt installer
• You need to install Qt 5.9.3 or higher, and following packages:
  • Qt Core for your compiler (msvc2015/g++/clang++)

Additional packages

OS	Packages
Linux	sudo apt-get install libblkid-dev libudev-dev

Make

• From directory with project (use shadow build), type in terminal:

  • sh

    cd ..
    mkdir devlib-build
    cd devlib-build
    qmake "../devlib/devlib.pro"
    make

  • pwsh (PowerShell)

    cd ..
    mkdir devlib-build
    cd devlib-build
    qmake "..\devlib\devlib.pro"
    jom.exe

• Note: By default qmake locates in [QTPATH]/[QTVERSION]/[COMPILER]/bin. For example ~/Qt/5.9.1/clang_64/bin/qmake. On Windows, instead of make you can use jom.exe which installs with msvc compiler.

• ccache: For building with ccache add QMAKE_CXX='ccache $${QMAKE_CXX}' to the end of qmake or QtCreator build kit

Build configuration

By default the project builds only devlib library

Options

• DEVLIB_INCLUDE_EXAMPLES - enable examples build

• ENABLE_HEADERS_COPY - devlib builds with public headers (will be located in include dir)

  Example:

    qmake CONFIG+=EXCLUDE_EXAMPLES_BUILD \
          CONFIG+=ENABLE_HEADERS_COPY
