Does anybody have any experience with WIMGAPI.dll? I will be using that instead of Imagex

Imagex is completely Obsolete ?????? now does all the Dism.exe http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh825258.aspx  imagex I think in the future will be removed
 
however http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd834960.aspx i do not know if it's true but once heard (by non-professional users) about that DISM.exe was faster the GimageX http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit-tools/gimagex/ or other, and the GimageX is written in C++ by people who know how to write a code ehhh, I mean like if there are doubts on the efficiency of the interpretation of the Imaging API (WIMGAPI), as said are just words in the air (unverified) without any kind of foundation
 
Ciao.

I could use DISM but if I remember correctly I struggled to get the progress % of the mount/unmount, etc..

I already told\indicated\suggest you two years ago ehhh

 

Sorry Legolash2o only now i have seen this Post, if you use DISM.exe or Imagex.exe need to use the ReadConsoleOutputCharacter to read the "[-----%XX----]"

you write in C# right, here http://www.pinvoke.n...tCharacter.html

Sorry for my English

Ciao.

 

I tested it years ago (as always in\with\using AutoIt), and it's all OK, but hmmmmm for 3 years now I can not find free time to Upgrade\Update\RewriteAll WinNT6.x True Integrator ehhhh, I mean I do not know how it behaves with the latest release of Dism, but I believe is how they should be, as always must be all 100% OK

Had a look into wimlib ? I think it's an alternative worth considering.
