NT Driver Utility/Kernel Debugger

NTDEV

Dear GURU,

I have a list of questions here:

  1. How to make a kernel debugger for NT Drivers particularly on
    Printer Driver (minidriver)?
  2. How to create a log file when debugging an NT Driver?
  3. How to write to a file during kernel mode?

Thanks,
-Enrique G. Villegas-

I would recommend getting a few books regarding NT driver development, such as
those from Viscarola/Mason, Baker, Oney:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0735605882/o/qid=980883904/sr=8-1/ref=aps_s
r_b_1_1/107-6359182-5029320
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1578700582/qid%3D980883920/107-6359182-5029
320
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0130204315/qid=980883939/sr=2-1/ref=sc_b_1/
107-6359182-5029320
These are all excellent works and have various strengths/weaknesses, so I would
recommend getting them all and read them thoroughly.

This list is unlikely to help with such “newbie” questions where the questions
reveal that the poster has not yet performed the most basic research into the
topic. Asking this question here is like going to a Star Trek convention and
asking who the hell is Captain Kirk ? :wink:
