getting Device Info

[Sharad]

Hello,

There is a way to show the device info (like container ID/Dev Instance Path/Device Class Guid which we see in device manager in windows OS) in my application with the TWAIN driver?

Thanks,
Sharad

TWAIN is specifically designed to hide that kind of information, so there is no standard way to obtain it.

You could possibly figure it out by examining the open files in the current process, finding which USBSCAN# device is open (assuming of course that it is a USB device and not SCSI, 1394, network, etc)…and then explore the registry for that USBSCAN# device to get the associated information.
