使用ASPI读SCSI/IDE/ATAPI的CDROM数据或音乐磁道数据的程序

CD-ROM and CD-audio interface components by Sergey "KSER" Kabikov.

DESCRIPTION:
~~~~~~~~~~~~
   TASPIdevice class implements basic-level interface to wnaspi32.dll and
some of fundamental functions for SCSI interface, that are device-type
independent  (wnaspi32.dll is an Adaptec's creature called Advanced SCSI
Programming Interface, and this library is a part of any Win32 OSes
installation package; it's more than just-SCSI-shell because it provides
the same standard interface for the IDE/ATAPI devices too).
   TCdRom is an TASPIdevice's descendant class to implement ASPI/SCSI
primitive interface for the CD-ROM and CD-Audio devices, both SCSI and
IDE/ATAPI. It lets you read/seek digital CD-ROM data, play CD-audio
tracks and take software control over almost all device's parameters.
   Both classes written with non-VCL applications in mind, so they use
the only 'windows.pas' Delphi unit. For the same reason author hopes to
easy launch it in any Borland/Inprise environment without modifications.
   The documentation is inside the units.  By the author's opinion, the
well-commented source is the best documentation.
