My ultimate goal is to create a .lib file for the kernel mode driver and to use that .lib in my project
I have tried to create static library file for the windows driver with the header.h and the functions are defined in .c
I use visual studio 2013 with WDK 8.1 environment
I have goggled about it and managed to create a .lib file through empty static library for driver as new project and add my headers and c files and build it successfully.
but i am not sure I have followed correct procedures please note me if I am wrong.
Then i have linked the header file and the .lib file to my project through properties and tried to use the functions in my project but got link errors.
I able manage .lib file create and add in win32 environment and use it in win32 console project, but it didn?t help me for my driver project and mostly got diverted to DLL and win32 console.
Please provide me some link that I can able to get details about the .lib file create in kernel mode driver (KMDF) and how can I add it to the project
And tried to link the lib file created with the KMDF driver but its showing link errors like

It’s not necessarily easy to create a single library that works in both
user-mode and kernel-mode clients. You can’t refer to any run-time
library routines, for example.

You are compiling your library with the run-time checks turned on. In
the project properties, in “Code Generation”, make sure “Smaller Type
Check” is set to “No” and “Basic Runtime Checks” is set to “Default”.

Nor does, it frequently work out well enough to make the tradeoffs worth,
IMO.
I have to admit to on a few occasions I thought that this would pay off for
me, and on two of them it really didn’t.
If you’ve got something that can work safely in both with only different
allocators, it might be worth the trouble, but this basically requires you
to use either nonpaged or paged memory for everything in the kernel.
Otherwise, you’re code is going to end up looking quite different for user
v. kernel.
If you have to call win32 api or kernel functions beyond that outside of
perhaps init/unit, it’s probably not a good candidate, IMO.
My two cents
