Creating .PNF file for your .INF file

NTDEV
1

How do you create a .PNF file from your .INF file? Is there a compiler
somewhere in the DDK to use?

Thanks In Advance,
Joe

no. The PNF file gets created by the system when the inf file is used to
install the device. You don’t need to create them.

So there’s no way to create a PNF file ahead of time?

Thanks,
Joe

If you copy the INF file using SetupCopyOEMInf function, system parses the
INF file and creates .PNF even before the device is installed.
