junction - List Hard Links of a file (in C#) -

i want write program shows files of other drive hard links. want keep both hardlinks consistent in filename , other things have function/method can list current hard links of file.

so example:

i have file c:\file.txt , second hard link d:\file.txt.
rename d:\file.txt d:\file_new.txt. want able rename hardlink on c drive well.
need function returns d:\file_new.txt there following hardlinks:
c:\file.txt
d:\file_new.txt
can rename hard link on c:\ d:\file_new.txt

so need hard links of physical file. or: hard links of file addressed hard link.

hope can help!

edit:

oliver noticed hard links can't used on differnt disks. thanks... extend question to: need? junction points? symbolic links? should work files not folders!

the following code should work (originally postet peter provost on powershell code repository):

using system; using system.collections.generic; using system.io; using system.runtime.interopservices; using system.text; using microsoft.win32.safehandles; using filetime = system.runtime.interopservices.comtypes.filetime;  namespace hardlinkenumerator {    public static class kernel32api    {        [structlayout(layoutkind.sequential)]        public struct by_handle_file_information        {            public uint fileattributes;            public filetime creationtime;            public filetime lastaccesstime;            public filetime lastwritetime;            public uint volumeserialnumber;            public uint filesizehigh;            public uint filesizelow;            public uint numberoflinks;            public uint fileindexhigh;            public uint fileindexlow;        }         [dllimport("kernel32.dll", setlasterror = true, charset = charset.auto)]        static extern safefilehandle createfile(            string lpfilename,            [marshalas(unmanagedtype.u4)] fileaccess dwdesiredaccess,            [marshalas(unmanagedtype.u4)] fileshare dwsharemode,            intptr lpsecurityattributes,            [marshalas(unmanagedtype.u4)] filemode dwcreationdisposition,            [marshalas(unmanagedtype.u4)] fileattributes dwflagsandattributes,            intptr htemplatefile);         [dllimport("kernel32.dll", setlasterror = true)]        static extern bool getfileinformationbyhandle(safefilehandle handle, out by_handle_file_information lpfileinformation);         [dllimport("kernel32.dll", setlasterror = true)]        [return: marshalas(unmanagedtype.bool)]        static extern bool closehandle(safehandle hobject);         [dllimport("kernel32.dll", setlasterror=true, charset=charset.unicode)]        static extern intptr findfirstfilenamew(            string lpfilename,            uint dwflags,            ref uint stringlength,            stringbuilder filename);         [dllimport("kernel32.dll", setlasterror = true, charset=charset.unicode)]        static extern bool findnextfilenamew(            intptr hfindstream,            ref uint stringlength,            stringbuilder filename);         [dllimport("kernel32.dll", setlasterror = true)]        static extern bool findclose(intptr ffindhandle);         [dllimport("kernel32.dll")]        static extern bool getvolumepathname(string lpszfilename,            [out] stringbuilder lpszvolumepathname, uint cchbufferlength);         [dllimport("shlwapi.dll", charset = charset.auto)]        static extern bool pathappend([in, out] stringbuilder pszpath, string pszmore);         public static int getfilelinkcount(string filepath)        {            int result = 0;            safefilehandle handle = createfile(filepath, fileaccess.read, fileshare.read, intptr.zero, filemode.open, fileattributes.archive, intptr.zero);            by_handle_file_information fileinfo = new by_handle_file_information();            if (getfileinformationbyhandle(handle, out fileinfo))                result = (int)fileinfo.numberoflinks;            closehandle(handle);            return result;        }         public static string[] getfilesiblinghardlinks(string filepath)        {            list<string> result = new list<string>();            uint stringlength = 256;            stringbuilder sb = new stringbuilder(256);            getvolumepathname(filepath, sb, stringlength);            string volume = sb.tostring();            sb.length = 0; stringlength = 256;            intptr findhandle = findfirstfilenamew(filepath, 0, ref stringlength, sb);            if (findhandle.toint32() != -1)            {                               {                    stringbuilder pathsb = new stringbuilder(volume, 256);                    pathappend(pathsb, sb.tostring());                    result.add(pathsb.tostring());                    sb.length = 0; stringlength = 256;                } while (findnextfilenamew(findhandle, ref stringlength, sb));                findclose(findhandle);                return result.toarray();            }            return null;        }     } }
