chkinf - Code 39

NTDEV
1

I just ran the chkinf tool from 5384 and I still get the warning:
(W22.1.9998) NOTE: The ChkInf tool does not verify the WDF sections and
directives of the INF file.

Will the ChkInf tool eventually check WDF sections and directives?

Maybe it does now on the latest RC1 release. Has anyone tried it?

BTW - The reason I used chkinf is I got a Code 39 when I tried installing my
latest KMDF v1.1 driver. I had my driver working in my office so I tried
installing it on a different computer. I got the Code 39 so I looked at the
Windows\SetupApi.log and saw the CM_PROB_DRIVER_FAILED_LOAD. I looked for
the installation of the WDF coinstaller in the Windows\System32 directory
and couldn’t find it. I ran chkinf on my driver’s inf file and found the
problems. My driver worked in my office on my target machine because I had
installed DDK samples which loaded the WDF coinstaller for me.

I know there is a bug for this, I don’t know if it has been fixed for
RC1. I’ll ask around
