Has ClassPnp been, or will it be, ported to WDF?

It’s not a driver. It’s a kernel-mode DLL for SCSI class drivers such as
disk, tape, CDROM, and I don’t remember what else.
I don’t know whether there is a version that uses WDF. Frankly, unless you
*like* to spend a lot of time with your head spinning, the effort of trying
to figure out what it offers you in your effort to build your own SCSI
class driver is not worth the return. Give Mark Roddy some kopeks (or
kroners, or Ran, or whatever your preferred currency is) for his WDM
library and get on with solving your problem.

Well thanks for the reference but I don’t really have a product that
replaces classpnp. But to Mr. Little’s question: there was a plan for a
Longhorn era WDF based storage stack but I’m not sure what happened to it.
There was no mention of it at winhec this year. Perhaps it fell off the
truck?

I meant just make a class driver with your WDM widget as the base. It took
me about 20 lines of code for the skeleton, in addition to the stuff that
actually means something for my particular use.

T’is a bit early to be using Longhorn for a deliverable, and what I need to
do needs to be delivered late this year to the early part of 2006. After
re-thunking things, there is another way.
