Start using NTFS

Hi everyone!
I need some basic explanation on how manipulate NTFS in C++:
for example how I can retrive the partition table, how can I resize a
partition...
I know this is not simple but I need a ' Point to start '.
You don't have to provide me an entire application that format/resize
partition or more, if you can give me a " proof-of-concept ".

Thanks in advance,

Federico

Ah, somebody isn't smart enough for the course.

This is off-topic here because it has nothing (directly) to do
with C++. NTFS is purely a Microsoft Windows thing. You can
access their file system using various languages depending on
which API you use. For Win32, C or C++. For MFC, heavily-
modified C++. For .NET, C#. But the function calls or classes
to do what you want are a part of your API, not a part of C++.

Ask in one of the following groups instead:

comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.win32
microsoft.public.win32.programmer
