How to check if the currently logged on user is using roaming profile?

Question

How can I check if the current user is using roaming profile?

Is there any .net framework library that can help?

I believe the only way to do this is to call the Win32 shell function GetProfileType. You would need to use P/Invoke to make the call and then check the out value of the pdwFlags parameter for PT_ROAMING (which has the value of 2).

I don't see a sample signature for this function on pinvoke.net but with such a simple signature:

BOOL WINAPI GetProfileType(      
    DWORD *pdwFlags
);

Creating one would not be hard.
