hello,
how can i create notification event(named notification event)in driver so
that i can open the event using the event name in the user application and
furthur do some operations. NTDDK has IoCreateNotificationEvent(…)
routine for windows 2000 drivers. But i want it for Windows 98/SE or ME.
Thanx in Advance.
Regards,
Madhu.
Hi Madhu,
It is not possible to share normally in the 98. But there are different ways to do that like DeviceIOControl and all.
I believe it gives u proper hints.
Good Luck,

There is not platform-portable way to do this. I just create the event
in user mode and send the handle to my driver in an IOCTL. The driver
then does an ObReferenceObjectByHandle. A fully worked out sample –
EVWAIT – is in my WDM book.

AIR, Walter’s method that re recounts below is the recommended means of
doing it in NT4 and above as well.
