programmatically detect PCMCIA GPIB insertion events

[fredl99]

(Microsoft Visual C++)

I am able to programmatically detect when a NI USB GPIB is inserted in the PC.  Do I use the same method to detect the PCMCIA GPIB?  Is it also a  

DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE?

Detail:

Here is how to detect NI USB GPIB

LRESULT CALLBACK DeviceManager::WindowsEventHandler(HWND hWnd, UINT Message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)

{

if ( Message == WM_DEVICECHANGE )

{

if(wParam == DBT_DEVICEARRIVAL)

{

DEV_BROADCAST_HDR* hdr = (DEV_BROADCAST_HDR*)lParam;

if(DBT_DEVTYP_DEVICEINTERFACE == hdr->dbch_devicetype)

{

if ( strstr( ((DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE*)hdr)->dbcc_name, "Vid_3923" ))         // THIS is the USB GPIB HS
