launching user application when I insert pcmcia card!!!

hello all,

I need to launch an USER MODE application when I just insert the pcmcia
card into the socket…

I could see many postings in this list telling how to launch a driver from
an application, Also,there are other postings on how to communcite with
user mode appln from kernel dirver, But I need to start the User-mode
application itself.

I just got an unclear picture,that need to use some serivce Manager
stuffs…Not clear with it, Can anybody explain me…

Now I would like to know the other way…

Another question,

  1. when I insert the pcmcia card into the socket,after the OS DETECTING
    the pcmcia card, what is the first IRP minor function that the pnp manager
    would pass to the device driver…???

  2. On what Basis do the Device Manager lists the name of the devices…
    does it checks into the registry,or is it based on enumeration done on the
    system, how it displays…

thanx,

shiv

Walter Oney’s book on WDM drivers includes a sample that solves this problem in an elegant way, see http://www.oneysoft.com/

In the device installation process, add some app to RunOnce registry.
It must receive notifications on your device arrival, talk IOCTL’s to the driver and can launch any other apps.
