Book Description
Software developer and author Karen Hazzah expands her original treatise on device drivers in the second edition of Writing Windows VxDs and Device Drivers. The book and companion disk include the author's library of wrapper functions that allow the programmer to code VxDs almost entirely in C, eliminating the necessity of expensive third-party tools. Virtual and nonstandard device drivers extend the capabilities of Windows to go anywhere and do anything. Hazzah specifies how to determine whether a virtual device driver (VxD) or dynamic link library (DLL) is appropriate for the task at hand, depending on privilege, restrictions, kind of interface, class of device, and performance requirements. Whatever the case, Hazzah presents her material in the context of the Virtual Machine and the 80x86 architecture. This book is primarily aimed at developers who need to write nonstandard device drivers, either as VxDs or DLLs. Readers who have already written device interface code or a device driver, have a strong grasp of how segments are used by DOS compilers and assemblers, and can read 80x86 assembly should feel comfortable with the material presented. The second edition expands the coverage of VxDs, with attention to new Windows 95 features and uses far less 80x86 assembly than in the first edition.
