IMAPI Interfaces

The following tables identify and briefly describe the interfaces used C/C++ developers and the associated scripting object. Prefix the object name in the table with "IMAPI2." to fully qualify the object name when creating the object in script.

The following table lists the interfaces associated with devices, the burn engine, and the format writers and eraser.
