I have a bunch of device files which are accessible by using \\.\name_of_file as an argument to CreateFile.

I can use WinObj to see the list of these files, but what I’d like to do is iterate over them programmatically. Much Googling seems to be implying that I can use the Object Manager or the NT namespace, but I can’t find an API for either of these, nor the source for WinObj to trawl through…

Can anyone enlighten me please?
