With the help of Joshua Drake who gave me an awesome link on how to solve my problem, those are my results:
The code that I am fixing to post is kind of specialized in that it looks for a specific GUID and only looks for the first one. I adapted it from the article about how to disable a device, although this code does not disable anything it merely checks for presence.
public static bool IsDevicePresent(string guid)
{
var info = IntPtr.Zero;
var NullGuid = new Guid(guid);
try
{
info = SetupDiGetClassDevsW(ref NullGuid,null,IntPtr.Zero,DIGCF_PRESENT);
CheckError("SetupDiGetClassDevs");
var devdata = new SP_DEVINFO_DATA();
devdata.cbSize = (UInt32)Marshal.SizeOf(devdata);
// Get first device matching device criterion.
SetupDiEnumDeviceInfo(info,0,out devdata);
// if no items match filter, throw
if (Marshal.GetLastWin32Error() == ERROR_NO_MORE_ITEMS)
CheckError("No device found matching filter.", 0xcffff);
CheckError("SetupDiEnumDeviceInfo");
}
catch
{
return false;
}
finally
{
if (info != IntPtr.Zero)
SetupDiDestroyDeviceInfoList(info);
}
return true;
}
private static void CheckError(string message, int lasterror = -1)
{
int code = lasterror == -1 ? Marshal.GetLastWin32Error() : lasterror;
if (code != 0)
throw new ApplicationException(String.Format("Error disabling hardware device (Code {0}): {1}",code, message));
}
[DllImport("setupapi.dll", SetLastError = true)]
private static extern IntPtr SetupDiGetClassDevsW([In] ref Guid ClassGuid,[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)]string Enumerator,IntPtr parent,UInt32 flags);
[DllImport("setupapi.dll", SetLastError = true)]
private static extern bool SetupDiDestroyDeviceInfoList(IntPtr handle);
[DllImport("setupapi.dll", SetLastError = true)]
private static extern bool SetupDiEnumDeviceInfo(IntPtr deviceInfoSet,UInt32 memberIndex,[Out] out SP_DEVINFO_DATA deviceInfoData);
//used to find device info from device manager
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
private struct SP_DEVINFO_DATA
{
public UInt32 cbSize;
public Guid classGuid;
public UInt32 devInst;
public IntPtr reserved;
}
private const uint DIGCF_PRESENT = 2;
private const uint ERROR_INVALID_DATA = 13;
private const uint ERROR_NO_MORE_ITEMS = 259;
private const uint ERROR_ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND = 1168;
And here is a simple unit test to prove it works for first device
[Test]
public void TestDevicePresent()
{
var bluetoothClassGuid = "e0cbf06c-cd8b-4647-bb8a-263b43f0f974";
var biometricClassGuid = "53D29EF7-377C-4D14-864B-EB3A85769359";
var cdromdrivClassGiud = "4d36e965-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318";
Assert.False(Native.IsDevicePresent(bluetoothClassGuid));
Assert.False(Native.IsDevicePresent(biometricClassGuid));
Assert.True(Native.IsDevicePresent(cdromdrivClassGiud));
}
