What I want to do is to programmatically eject a CD-RW being managed
by UDF package writing software (InCD on my machine).
The normal procedure for ejecting a CD work for audio CDs or CD-Rs but
don't work in this case - which makes sense. So the idea is to unmount
the device, re-enable the eject mechanism and eject it. I got a code
sample, but it doesn't work on my (Win98) machine.
Thanks for the links
