    - Need copy of latest Win DDK Could anyone do me a really huge favor and send me the *.h and *.lib files from the latest WIndows DDK? You can no longer download them from MS (unless you have MSDN, which I don't). I've ordered the CD, but I need to get some software to read a USB device working in the next couple of days. Please (please!) send the files to wexler "at" ccr.jussieu.fr Thank you VERY much. Mark Tag: Unidriver Minidriver dev tool and versioning the DLL Tag: 47462

    - 1394 Async Write STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT Hi, I have to perform an async write to an IEEE 1394 bus device. The device 'stalls' the response until it completes the operation which is triggered by the write request. Currently this takes aprox. 270 ms. But it seems that the 1394 bus driver stack of W2k Prof. SP4 completes the transaction prior by returning STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT. (After approx. 200ms.) Under WXp SP1 I could not observe this behavior so far. Are the corresponding timeout values defined in the IEEE 1394 bus spec.? Is there a facility to tweak the applied timeout value at the 1394 bus driver stack? Any hints are appreciated. Thanks, -Volker Tag: Unidriver Minidriver dev tool and versioning the DLL Tag: 47454

    - Shared memory issue between driver and application Hi all, I am newbie for driver programming. I created a shared memory in driver program using ExAllocatePoolWithTag, the last parameter is the address a string "ADDR". Then I tried to access that shared memory from one application using OpenFileMapping with lpName "ADDR". It failed, shows no access to that memory. Then I changed the parameter in OpenFileMapping to a random bad name, I got the same error. That program can work with shared memory which created using CreateFileMapping. Any suggestion are highly welcome. Tag: Unidriver Minidriver dev tool and versioning the DLL Tag: 47450

    - Print driver: Removing PaperSize definitions Hi, I noticed a problem with the size of a vendor specified paper size in my Unidriver GPD file. I fixed it, but it appears that the old definition still exists. I did a search on my XP registry and found the old name under several entries, one being HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Forms. I think this is causing me problems because the only way to get the fixed version to appear in the driver "properties" section is to give it a different name. Is the only way to remove the paper size definition to manually delete it from the registry? Tag: Unidriver Minidriver dev tool and versioning the DLL Tag: 47394

    - ImageProcessing and banding... Hello all; (Win2K UNIDRV OEMDLL) I'm doing a custom halftone (downconversion from 8BPP to 1BPP) in ImageProcessing, and handing the bitmap back to UNIDRV for output to spooler. With a res of (203(X) x 508(Y)), when a page is rendered in 2 bands (i.e., a 1728 wide x 5588 Letter size page), the data output is 2 x the height of the first band, NOT the sum of band heights. That is: (from pBitmapInfoHeader->biHeight) Band 1: 2800 lines high Band 2: 2788 lines high. Data out = 5600 lines, NOT 5588. Obviously, the last 12 lines are garbage data. I'm processing the data and returning it in the supplied bitmap area, and returning *ppbResult = pSrcBitmap; for each band. Should I handle banded (repeated) calls to ImageProcessing *differently* from single-band page calls? If all else fails, I can write to the spooler directly, but I'd rather not. Thanks! -- J.C.

    - How to write and read from a I/O address directly in VC++? Hi My friends, My company made a very old motor controller, it's a ISA card. It works under DOS now. Our customer and my boss want it can be worked on Windows operating system(XP or NT) I checked its source code( for DOS 6.22), most of controls are done by writing and reading from several I/O addresses. As I know in windows, I can not access low level I/O directly. Would you like to tell me how to do it? I think i need to write a driver for it. If you could give me some information on how to write device driver, I will really appreciate it. I 'm a VC++ programmer, but I never wrote driver before. If you'd like to write to me, you email address is lchang@andec.ca Thanks ahead. Larry Tag: Unidriver Minidriver dev tool and versioning the DLL Tag: 47387

    - SATA disk drives - IOCTL_ATA_PASS_THROUGH support I've been looking for a third party SATA controller that supports IOCTL_ATA_PASS_THROUGH, but I've had no luck. Does anyone know of a controller that supports this? From what I've seen, third party SATA controllers (Adaptec, Promise) are implementing there miniport drivers as SCSI miniport drivers, so IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH is supported, but not IOCTL_ATA_PASS_THROUGH. This makes something as simple as sending an Identify command through the pass through interface impossible (?). Also, does anyone know if the Intel ICH5 chipset supports the IOCTL_ATA_PASS_THROUGH for SATA devices? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    - Device to be opened from a DOS program (i.e., NTVDM) Hello, currently, I'm trying to modify a driver to be able to be opened from a legacy DOS program (compiled with Turbo Pascal, if this matters). Anyway, I can't find a way to do it. There is a Symbolic Link created, and opening it from a Win32 application works like a charm. Anyway, if the DOS based program opens the device (with a call to LongOpenFile('\\.\giveio', F, fmReadOnly)), the call always fails. Anyway, I can see from the debugger that the device is opened and immediately closed. And: Yes, I always return STATUS_SUCESS in response to IRP_MJ_CREATE: Irp->IoStatus.Information = 0; Irp->IoStatus.Status = STATUS_SUCCESS; IoCompleteRequest(Irp, IO_NO_INCREMENT); return STATUS_SUCCESS; There is no other return path. I don't have a clue what to do. I thought that the symbolic link might need to be created somewhere else than in \DosDevices\, but since the IRP_MJ_CREATE routine is called (as well as the IRP_MJ_CLOSE routine), I don't know where to search. I already had a look at how LPTx are created, as they are accessible to NTVDM programs, too, but I could not find a hint what I am doing wrong. Any ideas? Regards, Spiro. -- Spiro R.

    - How to force Windows to ignore USB port difference? Hi, I search all along a method that to force Windows ignore USB port difference, because when my usb device is inserted another port Windows XP will guide to install its driver. In general, it's OK and friendly, but in my case user will have no chance to install it. So automatically setup usb device is must. One method is that to add a serial number in device itself. It's said that it's OK. But I cannot demand device provider do such. Another one maybe is to let Windows XP to ignore USB port difference. But how can I do it?

    - ISA-Device and PnP-Manager Hello, I have a ISA-LCD device and the PnP Manager starts the HW-Wizard. So far so good. When I give the Wizard my driver for this device, only the memory resource (not the port I/O and interrupt resources) are installed. When I cancel the PnP HW-Wizard and install my driver with system->Add Hardware Wizard the resources are all available. But after the next boot the PnP Manager finds a new device (other display) and starts the HW-Wizard and my driver has the yellow exclamation mark. When I uninstall the driver rudiment "other display", my driver gets all resources and the exclamation mark is gone. How can supress the start of the PnP HW-Wizard for this device???

    - Windows XP Spooler Hi Under Windows NT4.0 the spooler would load any language/port monitors immediately when the spooler was started. Under Window XP Pro SP1 the spooler can take up to 2 mins before it loads them. This is circumvented as soon you access the print manager or send data to the printer. Is there a way to get this to behave in the same fashion as NT, i.e. load the monitors as soom as I start the spooler.

    - windows = realtime? Hello, I have posted similar topic some weeks ago and now I want to discuss it further. I'm searching for operating system to meet real-time constraints. I know that windows is not true real time system, but I have found some papers complaining that Windows NT can be used as real time system. It complains that total interrupt latency of NT is about 30 microseconds. That sounds good for me. I found nothing about Win 2000 and XP interrupt latency. Maybe someone knows? I think if I write my apps in Ring0 as kernel mode drivers, then I will have latency as system interrupt latency. So why Windows cant be used as real-time system? Maybe someone have good ideas or links about that. I found it very interesting topic. I have searched through internet and found lots of add-on for linux kernels, but they can guarantee about 30 microseconds latency. Developers complain that these add-ons is real time. So why windows with 30 us latency can't be real time? Thank you for any thoughts. alpha Tag: Unidriver Minidriver dev tool and versioning the DLL Tag: 47307

There is a MaximumSize arg to ZwCreateSection, and a flag SECTION_EXTEND_SIZE. But how do I guess at a size, then if turns out I did not need so much memory, how do I shrink it down?

    - simple HID report descriptor READ response since i have accomplished what my original issue was, i am moving my new issue to a new thread. i am writing a virtual joystick HID device driver and am trying to respond to the read requests. i have the following report descriptor defined: char ReportDescriptor[31] = { 0x05, 0x01, // USAGE_PAGE (Generic Desktop) 0x15, 0x00, // LOGICAL_MINIMUM (0) 0x27, 0x00, 0xfa, 0x00, 0x00, // LOGICAL_MAXIMUM (64000) 0x09, 0x04, // USAGE (Joystick) 0xa1, 0x01, // COLLECTION (Application) 0x05, 0x01, // USAGE_PAGE (Generic Desktop) 0x09, 0x01, // USAGE (Pointer) 0xa1, 0x00, // COLLECTION (Physical) 0x09, 0x30, // USAGE (X) 0x09, 0x31, // USAGE (Y) 0x95, 0x02, // REPORT_COUNT (2) 0x75, 0x40, // REPORT_SIZE (64) 0x81, 0x02, // INPUT (Data,Var, Abs) 0xc0, // END_COLLECTION 0xc0 // END_COLLECTION }; i believe i have the settings correct for REPORT COUNT and REPORT SIZE. in the read processing routine i have the following: ------------------ ULONG readReport[2]; ULONG bytesToCopy = 8; IrpStack = IoGetCurrentIrpStackLocation(Irp); readReport[0] = 15000; readReport[1] = 15000; RtlCopyMemory(Irp->UserBuffer, readReport, bytesToCopy); Irp->IoStatus.Information = bytesToCopy; } ------------ i have left out some code, but this is the meat. am i responding correctly given the above report descriptor? any direction would be much appreciated. garritt Tag: Unidriver Minidriver dev tool and versioning the DLL Tag: 47280

    - SilentInstall Hi We have developped a device driver stack that "mounts" removable storage. When a new volume is detected by PnP manager, the system ask for one of our drivers (the one actually creating the disk objects), even is this driver has already been installed in the system. We have then to provide the path to this driver file, and this is somewhat annoying. We want to avoid this behavior. In our DispatchPnp routines, we set the SilentInstall capabilities this way: case IRP_MN_QUERY_CAPABILITIES: { PDEVICE_CAPABILITIES capabilities; capabilities = irpSp->Parameters.DeviceCapabilities.Capabilities; capabilities->SilentInstall = 1; ... ntStatus = STATUS_SUCCESS; break; } Our drivers are not digitally signed and won't be for a long time. What can be done to avoid that the system asks for the driver file, that has actually already been installed ? TIA VV Tag: Unidriver Minidriver dev tool and versioning the DLL Tag: 47264

    - powrprof.h missing in 2003 ddk I need to call power management API "CallNtPowerInformation" in my function. The function is defined in powrprof.h, but I cannot locate the file under win2003 ddk include files. How am I to use that? But I do find that powrprof.lib is still available under 2003ddk, but header file is missing. thanks Tag: Unidriver Minidriver dev tool and versioning the DLL Tag: 47263

Hi,
Can anyone tell me the proper way to add/change the version information on the DLL created with the help of the print Minidriver development tool? When creating a project with Print MDT, it generates the RC file for you and if you change it manually with new version information, it complains the next time you load it up. If you allow it to reprocess the RC file, you lose what you put in there.

Am I stuck with the Microsoft copyright and version number?
