OSRUSBFX2.exe

Dear All:

Has anyone translated the OSRUSBFX2 program into VISUAL STUDIO out of the BUILD environment?

I have tried to translate the program, but I get several interesting errors if I try in C++

Regards

John Nichols

Take a look at ddkbuild.

What errors are you seeing? Have you tried moving the project to VS as C files and once that us working move to c++? What version of VS?

I will try moving them to c instead of c++

I have tried the DDK builds and it is a bitch to get running.

Why is that going to make a difference?

I hope you realize that’s only because you haven’t done it before.
Configuring a WDK build is far simpler than configuring a Visual Studio
build.

Dear Tim:

It does not make a bit of difference whether I run as C++ or C, you are correct.

I accept your point that it is quite easy to get the Driver Kit build to work, I also accept that it is a long hard learning curve and I am now at the tangent point at 0,0 which is the flat part of the long steep curve in front of me.

In the end the problem reduces to one of, do I do it using the tools I know well or do I use tools that are easy, but problematic for other reasons. I was trying the problematic tools to really see how hard it is. DDKBUILD is a neat program, but not the solution in the end. WDK is a neat program and has many advantages.

It is obvious I need to buy the textbook, which I will do later today.

Plus, work out how to make OSRUSBFX2.exe compile into a DLL and then call the DLL from elsewhere. So my search today is to build as a DLL with a callable function.

This is all a lot of fun. If you take it seriously you will go crazy.

Thanks for the help.
