You have it nearly right. Firstly, GetDeviceProc() is used to identify the device handler and "other" things like resolving assignments. If you just want a list, don't call GetDeviceProc() or anything else that will call it, otherwise it will resolve them, so there's your problem. As you a...

I let snoopy run to cover another bug in another program and ... Snoopy is a debugging tool, it only works as such. It adds overhead to every DOS call, (and some of the others), by patching each function with a small stub, it does not provide or perform any workaround that make application bugs go ...

I think someone wrote a RAID-0 driver or software solution for this, that's what you are after.
I'm not sure if there are also Amiga RAID-1+ options.

Here's some reading material; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID

C:version path full >T:version.txt then Parsing the text file is so old school. ;) It should also work for devices/volumes. Colinw's suggestion doesn't work for them. C:Version works with all filesystem "device" names. ie: ENV: RAM: APPDIR: .... But not currently with the "volume&quo...

The best you can hope for is information that is actually stored in an executable.

Check out the autodocs for; IDOS->GetSegListInfoTags()
Specifically for the tags; GSLI_VersionString, GSLI_ResidentVersionString and GSLI_ResidentStruct.

There is also example code at the bottom.

Here's some code I used last year to test LockTags(): [...] When I read the autodoc I wasn't sure if the LOCKF_SOFTLINK_MIDPART and LOCKF_SOFTLINK_ENDPART flags were mutually exclusive. Apparently they are not. You are correct, they are not, because you can have up to 15 softlinks in a path, eg: &q...

Hello. ... On Amiga OS I cannot find any such mechanism. IDOS->ExamineObjectTags() always dereferences the link and does not fill out the Link member of the ExamineData structure. Ok, I could use IDOS->ExamineDir() to iterate through all entries in the directory but this is an ugly workaround and h...

You might want to add the FILES switch to the list command so that version is only called on files and not on any directories. Oops - yes, good point. Thanks! Best regards, Niels Am I simply failing to see the point of this horrific convolution to apparently get version info from a directory listin...

From the Releasenotes of intuition...

- TimedDisplayAlert() and DisplayAlert() now output only via DebugPrintF() and then call IExec->Alert().
