使用SetFileInformationByHandle移动文件

带有FileRenameInfo和FILE_RENAME_INFO的SetFileInformationByHandle文档包含一些错误。FILE_RENAME_INFO.FileNameLength必须设置为复制到FILE_RENAME_INFO.FileName的字符数（不包括终止零），并且即使将文件从一个目录移动到另一个目录，FILE_RENAME_INFO.RootDirectory也必须为null。

#include <sdkddkver.h>
#include <windows.h>

int _tmain( int argc, _TCHAR* argv [] )
{
    wchar_t* filename = L"C:\remove_tests\file.txt";
    wchar_t* destFilename = L"C:\remove_tests2\other.txt";
    // handles will be leaked but that should be irrelevant here
    auto fileHandle = CreateFile( filename,
                                  GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE | DELETE,
                                FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE | FILE_SHARE_DELETE,
                                      NULL,
                                      OPEN_EXISTING,
                                      FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
                                      NULL );
    if ( fileHandle == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE )
    {
        auto const err = GetLastError( );
        std::cerr << "failed to create test file: " << err;
        return err;
    }
    auto destFilenameLength = wcslen( destFilename );
    auto bufferSize = sizeof( FILE_RENAME_INFO ) + ( destFilenameLength*sizeof( wchar_t ));
    auto buffer = _alloca( bufferSize );
    memset( buffer, 0, bufferSize );
    auto const fri = reinterpret_cast<FILE_RENAME_INFO*>( buffer );
    fri->ReplaceIfExists = TRUE;
    fri->FileNameLength = destFilenameLength;
    wmemcpy( fri->FileName, destFilename, destFilenameLength );
    BOOL res = SetFileInformationByHandle( fileHandle, FileRenameInfo, fri, bufferSize );
    if ( !res )
    {
        auto const err = GetLastError( );
        std::cerr << "failed to rename file: " << err;
        return err;
    }
    else
        std::cout << "success";
}

我改变了几个想法：

1） 我不使用根句柄（我将其设置为NULL）

2） 我更改您的FILE_RENAME_INFO内存分配代码

注意：在windows 8中检查，在同一卷（磁盘）中移动文件

// handles will be leaked but that should be irrelevant here
