Hello,
I need to port the part of my driver installation application that
uses "UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices" call to 64-bit platform.
Here is ( quote) what DDK help recommends:
The 32-bit version of the application must check the value returned
by UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices. If the return value is
ERROR_IN_WOW64, the 32-bit application is executing on a 64-bit
platform and cannot update "in-box" drivers. Instead, it must call
CreateProcess (described in the Platform SDK documentation) to start
the 64-bit version of the application.
My interpretation of this paragraph: I have to build
UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices into "native" 64-bit executable.
The 32-bit version of the application must check the value returned
by UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices in 32-bit application. If the
return value is ERROR_IN_WOW64, it must use CreateProcess to
call "native" application.
What tools ( compiler and linker ) can I use to build that 64-bit
executable? I used DDK 3790 to build 64-bit driver. How can I use
DDK tools to build exe?
Thank you for your help.
