DiskArbitration API


  • Subject: DiskArbitration API

Hello!

We have an app that reads (removable) disks that uses a file system that Mac OS X doesn't recognize. We have been using the DiskArbitration API to make the OS ignore the disks as they are inserted, to prevent the "disk cannot be read" dialog from appearing. This has been working fine, until Tiger, where it stopped working because the DiskArbitration API has been completely redesigned. (Not that I'm complaining, I know that we have been using a private, unsupported API.)

I have not been able to find any documentation for the new API (apart from the brief comments in the headers), and I'm having a bit of trouble getting started. What I want to do is to get notified whenever a disk is about to be mounted, and then tell the OS to ignore the disk. Does anyone know how to do this using the Tiger version of DiskArbitration?


Thanks for any help!
