Extra-simple C++ Builder project.
Use it even if a SCSI2 host adapter is not installed into your PC.
ATAPI devices will be listed as well !

Prerequisite

Build the application in 4 easy steps:

• create a new project with C++ Builder
• declare the following items into the unit1 header:

  
  HINSTANCE AspiDllHandle;
  bool ( __stdcall *pfnFFAspiStart )( HWND );
  void ( __stdcall *pfnFFSCSIBusScan )( HWND );
  void ( __stdcall *pfnFFAspiStop )( void );
  

• put a button on the form and assign its OnClick event to the following handler:

  
  void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)
  {
  // load ASPIDLL.DLL
     AspiDllHandle = LoadLibrary ( "ASPIDLL.DLL" );
     if ( AspiDllHandle == 0 )
        {
          MessageBox ( NULL, "LoadLibrary:\nASPIDLL.DLL not found.",
                             "Error FS 001", MB_SYSTEMMODAL );
          return;
        }
  
  // load FFAspiStart address
     pfnFFAspiStart = ( bool ( __stdcall *)( HWND ) )
        GetProcAddress ( AspiDllHandle, "FFAspiStart" );
     if ( pfnFFAspiStart == NULL )
        {
          MessageBox ( NULL, "GetProcAddress:\nFFAspiStart not found.",
                             "Error FS 002", MB_SYSTEMMODAL );
          return;
        }
  
  // load FFSCSIBusScan address
     pfnFFSCSIBusScan = ( void ( __stdcall *)( HWND ) )
        GetProcAddress ( AspiDllHandle, "FFSCSIBusScan" );
     if ( pfnFFSCSIBusScan == NULL )
        {
          MessageBox ( NULL, "GetProcAddress:\nFFSCSIBusScan not found.",
                             "Error FS 003", MB_SYSTEMMODAL );
          return;
        }
  
  // load FFAspiStop address
     pfnFFAspiStop = ( void ( __stdcall *)( void ) )
        GetProcAddress ( AspiDllHandle, "FFAspiStop" );
     if ( pfnFFAspiStop == NULL )
        {
          MessageBox ( NULL, "GetProcAddress:\nFFAspiStop not found.",
                             "Error FS 004", MB_SYSTEMMODAL );
          return;
        }
  
  // check ASPI support
     if ( pfnFFAspiStart ( Application -> Handle ) == false )
        {
          MessageBox ( NULL, "No ASPI support.",
                             "Error FS 005", MB_SYSTEMMODAL );
          return;
        }
  
  // start ASPI support
     pfnFFAspiStart ( Application -> Handle );
  
  // scan the SCSI2 bus
     pfnFFSCSIBusScan ( Application -> Handle );
  
  // stop ASPI support
     pfnFFAspiStop ( );
  
  // unload the DLL
     FreeLibrary ( AspiDllHandle );
  }
  

• compile, click the button and... voila' !
