Subject: [ntdev] Re: Passing event notification from driver to
applicationFor all the reasons discussed above, and more, I really struggle with the
entire concept of sharing events by having a user-mode app send a handle
into a driver. Why not share an event by name? Have the user-app create
the named event, then just open the damn thing:
[skip]
Doesn’t this strike everyone as much more sane and secure?
I’m affraid it doesn’t. Several months before there was a discussion about
named events and they were marked as obsolete bad evil Glad you wrote
it.
