Hi All,

I am trying to write protocol driver INF file for cross platform and multi (2003 and 2008) Windows OS.

I am getting Setupapi.app log like this:

INF file missing to copy sys file and DLL file.

INF File particular sections:

[MVlanP.NTx86.6.0] ; For 2008 OS
AddReg = MVlanP.ndi.AddReg
Characteristics = 0x80 ; NCF_HAS_UI
copyfiles = MVlanP.CopyFiles.DLL, MVlanP.CopyFiles.sys
CopyInf = MVlanMP.inf

[SourceDisksNames.NTx86.6.0]
1=%DiskDescription%,\W2K8\x86

MVlan.sys = 1
MVlan.dll = 1

[MVlanP.CopyFiles.Sys]
MVlan.sys,2

[MVlanP.CopyFiles.DLL]
MVlan.dll,2

Any one can please help me where i am missing.

Thanks in Advance,

This is because you didn’t read the documentation. The SourceDisks
sections, for reasons that have been lost in the mists of antiquity, use
a different decoration scheme then all of the other INF sections. You
need to say:

[SourceDisksNames.x86]
1=%DiskDescriptionz%,\W2K8\x86

[SourceDisksFiles.x86]
MVlan.sys = 1
MVlan.dll = 1

Hi Tim Roberts,

Thank you very much for your support.

Now it is copying file but i need to copy SYS and DLL files for both 2003 and 2008 in different location.
At the time 2008 OS installation it is taking always 2003 folder SYS and DLL files.
how to differentiate 2003 and 2008 [SourceDisksNames] for 2003 [SourceDisksNames.x86] and 2008 [SourceDisksNames.???].

Is there any other way to differentiate please help me.

Here with i added entire INF File:

[Version]
Signature = “$Windows NT$”
Class = NetTrans
ClassGUID = {4D36E975-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Provider = %mux%
DriverVer = 05/25/2009,1.0.0.5

;Manufacturer section:

[Manufacturer]
%mux% = mux,NTx86,NTx86.6.0,NTamd64,NTamd64.6.0

;For XP and later

[mux.NTx86]
%MVlanP_Desc% = MVlanP.NTx86, mux_mvlanp

[mux.NTx86.6.0]
%MVlanP_Desc% = MVlanP.NTx86.6.0, mux_mvlanp

[mux.NTamd64]
%MVlanP_Desc% = MVlanP.NTamd64, mux_mvlanp

[mux.NTamd64.6.0]
%MVlanP_Desc% = MVlanP.NTamd64.6.0, mux_mvlanp

; Note:
; 1. The NCF_* flags are defined in netcfgx.h
; 2. NCF_HAS_UI (0x80) is required for custom property pages.

Multi-platform INF techniques are a bit of a confusing mess.

To accomplish what you are trying to do (which I believe is to have a set of
files for each OS version and CPU in one INF) you need to look at using
different CopyFiles sections.

A section entry specified in a CopyFiles directive has a syntax of:

[file-list-section]
destination-file-name[,source-file-name][,temporary-file-name][,flag]

What you want to do is to use the second parameter to good advantage.

[Foo_CopyFiles_2K3]
foo.sys,2k3\foo.sys,

this allows you to specify where (relative to the source folder) to get a
specific file. Since you can have different sections named anything you
want you can control which files get copied.

As a general bit of advice I recommend against this way of packaging a
driver that has different binaries for each platform (and CPU for that
matter). You will drive yourself bonkers building this INF plus if you
have to fix one driver and resign it, you need to resign the entire package
since the .CAT covers the .INF.

You might consider using a technique that places each platform into separate
INFs that use version tags to prevent it from being installed on anything
other than the correct platform/cpu combination.

Good Luck,
Dave Cattley
