The try { } finally { } and try { } except () { } handling that is part of
the SEH. You need SEH if you want to talk to the CacheManager.

You are in luck: <http://www.acc.umu.se/~bosse/ntifs.h>.

I have written the beging a xfs driver (i.e just loads and have a create)
((no, not SGI xfs, one of the other ones, namely the xfs that is part of
arla http://www.stacken.kth.se/projekt/arla/>)) Guess there will be more
code hacked soon (If I just get the time).

Love
