C can't do this, you need C++ (which was in fact designed around this
specific purpose). Check any standard graduate text for CD ejecting
theory and research outcomes.

Yes, but not here. Ask in a group that discusses your particular OS.

<OT>

int main(void)
{
t3d_open_CD_TRA Y();
return(0);
}
/* unfortunately the contents of particular t3d function do not yet
exist. If it did the function could also have been called using
atleast folllowing alias names:
- t3d_environment _OPEN_n_CD_DRIV E
- t3d_environment _EJECT_n_CD_DRI VE
- t3d_environment _EJECT_CD();

My DS-6000 will do it with:

i = i++;

However, this doesn't work on my DS-6100.

Your system may require something else entirely.

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) {
printf("Please press the CD eject button on the cd-player\n"
"Press <ENTER> when you're done.\n");
getchar();
printf("The CD drive has been ejected.\n");
return 0;

Sure. The following code shows how to do a raw CD player for DOS.
http://my.execpc.com/CE/AC/geezer/software/
"play audio CD without MSCDEX"
http://my.execpc.com/CE/AC/geezer/software/cdplay.c

You didn't say Linux or Windows... Besides, it shows you _everything_
you'll ever need to program a CD player.

My DS-6000 doesn't run DOS, Linux, or Windows. Nor does it have anything
called "ATAPI", or "Interrupt 19".

You should really upgrade to the DS 9000. The 6000 is ancient
history these days.

What complete and utter nonsense!

C++ cannot eject CD drives. It can only eject C++D drives!

Hi I'm wanting to create a cd-rom which boots automatically when it's inserted into the computer. What I hope to achieve is for a VB6 program to run automatically when the cd boots up. Can this be done? if yes, then how? Also, how do I link a command button click to the opening of files within the cd, i.e. word, excel and access files? Thanks

I use some shareware CD/DVD burning software that has a command line interface version. This allowed me to write my own custom SDK that performs various CD/DVD burning operations from my own VB.NET applications. Recently, I had some problems reading DVDs that I had recently burned, reading them with the same DVD device that burned them. So I wrote a quickie verification program that simply attempts to binary read all files on the disk.
