Use Mirror example

Mirror

Mirror is a simple command-line software that consumes the Dokan C API. It simply mirrors an existing folder in a dokan virtual drive by forwarding every IO call received by the virtual driver to the filesystem driver serving the existing folder.

Mirror.exe is embedded with dokan install in Dokan\DokanLibrary-1.0.0\sample\mirror when the option Install Dokan development files is checked during the installation. You can also build it from the source with Visual Studio.

Usage

/r RootDirectory (ex. /r c:\\test)
/l DriveLetter (ex. /l m)
/t ThreadCount (ex. /t 5)
/d (enable debug output)
/s (use stderr for output)
/n (use network drive)
/m (use removable drive)

Command line example

Mirror C:\Users as RootDirectory in to a drive of letter M:\.

mirror.exe /r C:\Users /l m

Mount as removable drive

mirror.exe /m /r C:\Users /l m

Mount as network drive

mirror.exe /n /r C:\Users /l m

Mount as read only drive

mirror.exe /w /r C:\Users /l m

Enable debug output stderr

mirror.exe /d /s /r C:\Users /l m

Note: To unmount the drive, just press CTRL + C in the console.
