convert partition to vhd windows API

Question

I am trying to code a tool like disk2vhd. I'm using the VHD windows api:

I created a vhd file and created a partition in it, but I don't know how to convert a Windows partition to vhd like disk2vhd creates a vhd using CreateVirtualDisk().

I've tried to copy all items from that partition to my vhd but it does not work.

Please show me how to do that.

You've already found some good sources of information. Why don't you use them? When you get stuck, show us the code you have and then ask a specific question about that code. — David Heffernan, Dec 01 '14 at 12:31
Why did you revert my question edit and make the question formatting worse? Was that an accident? — David Heffernan, Dec 01 '14 at 12:42

Never mind. I don't think I can help you if our communication is on this level. It won't work if the communication only goes in one direction. — David Heffernan, Dec 01 '14 at 12:51

I think you should do the following:

Load hard disk's information,
load disk partition,
create a file vhd,
copy partition to vhd.
