These procedures open and close a CD / DVD drive:
uses MMSystem, ...;
...
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
// opens the CD-ROM drive
mciSendstring('SET CDAUDIO DOOR OPEN', nil , 0, Form1.Handle);
mciSendString ('close cdlw', nil, 0, 0)
end;
procedure TForm1.Button2Click (Sender: TObject);
begin
// closes the CD-ROM drive
mciSendstring('SET CDAUDIO DOOR CLOSED', nil , 0, Form1.Handle);
mciSendString ('close cdlw', nil, 0, 0)
end;
...If you want to wait until the last operation is finished then this procedure will open/close a CD-ROM/DVD depending on the value of the blnOpen boolean variable:
uses
MMSystem, ...;
...
procedure cdOpenClose(chrDriveChar: char; blnOpen: boolean);
begin
if mciSendString(PChar('open ' + chrDriveChar + ': type cdaudio alias cdlw'), nil, 0, 0) = 0 then
begin
// open CD-ROM drive
if blnOpen = True then
mciSendString('set cdlw door open wait', nil, 0, 0)
// close CD-ROM drive
else
mciSendString('set cdlw door closed wait', nil, 0, 0);
mciSendString('close cdlw', nil, 0, 0);
end;
end;
