i’m trying to register for HID Pnp event with the following code :

status=IoRegisterPlugPlayNotification(
EventCategoryDeviceInterfaceChange,
PNPNOTIFY_DEVICE_INTERFACE_INCLUDE_EXISTING_INTERFACES,
(PVOID)&GUID_DEVINTERFACE_HID,pdx->Pdo->DriverObject,

(PDRIVER_NOTIFICATION_CALLBACK_ROUTINE)PnpNotificationCallBack,pdx,&pdx->Hid
NotificationHandle);

but i’m geting this on build :
ReadWrite.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_GUID_DEVINTERFACE_HID
objchk_wxp_x86\i386\somedriver.sys : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved
externals

though im including “hidclass.h”

i’ve done it with GUID_DEVINTERFACE_COMPORT already , including “ntddser.h”
and it’s working good .

Hello Ronan,

Try including “initguid.h” before “hidclass.h”.
