Hi,
How to link a user level library in the kernel mode driver?
I had placed all the Dlls and the lib files in the LIB includes path.
(DDK_LIB_PATH).
I also tried with TARGETLIBS.
But, Iam always getting Linker Error. LNK2001.(unresolved external symbol).
Thanks in Advance,
Regs,

Go immediately to your nearest white board and write 10,000,000 times
YOU CANNOT DO THIS, USER MODE CODE IS NOT FOR THE KERNEL.
Take a good driver writing class, until then stay out of the kernel.

Sheesh … you only link KERNEL with KERNEL. You CANNOT link KERNEL with USER. You do NOT link USER libs into KERNEL components and you do NOT link KERNEL libs into USER components.

It could be possible to force linker to use kernel exports but resulting binary will be probably refused by loader because of unresolvable imports. Try it.

Studies, career, romance. Whatever your concerns. We have the answers.
This shouldn’t have required any thought at all. Recall how this works.
At link time, link.exe believes what you tell it. If you give it a
implib, you are asserting the future existence of a PE file with a
particular name reachable by PATH or via delay loading. Dumpbin /imports
will tell you what assumption it is making.
If, at runtime, it can’t find a PE file with that name, it won’t work.
There’s nothing magic about the kernel skeleton implib.
the handle is invalid message you are getting because DrvEnablePdev
couldn’t be called or didn’t fill the structures (devinfo,gdiinfo)
structures properly,etc.
thanks

I managed to link kernel entry points into a usermode printer driver.
When installing (or attempting to print) I got a message box (don’t know
from whom) that said “The handle is invalid”. That’s as useful a
message as can be expected I think.
