BOOL
WINAPI
DeviceIoControl( (HANDLE) hDevice, // handle to device
(DWORD) FSCTL_READ_FILE_USN_DATA, // dwIoControlCode
(LPVOID) lpInBuffer, // input buffer
(DWORD) nInBufferSize, // size of input buffer
(LPVOID) lpOutBuffer, // output buffer
(DWORD) nOutBufferSize, // size of output buffer
(LPDWORD) lpBytesReturned, // number of bytes returned
(LPOVERLAPPED) lpOverlapped ); // OVERLAPPED structure

Remarks
If the call succeeds, the members of the returned USN_RECORD_V2 or USN_RECORD_V3 structure are valid except for the following members: TimeStamp, Reason, and SourceInfo. The Usn member represents the last USN written to the journal for this file or directory.
