Hi All,
I want to write a simple driver which identifies all the filesystem calls.
I don't want to use DDK. I prefer to use C++.
I am using VC++ 6 and Windows 2000.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
aravind.t

Who said if you use DDK then you cannot use C++?

Nobody says you cannot use it, but you are warned about using it.

As to the OP, you question is vague.

Hi, if you don't want to use DDK, you can use third party softwares that let you write your driver in many compilers including C++. WinDriver is a good tool although not free (they have a fully featured evaluation version).you can check out WinDriver: http://www.jungo.com/windriver_usb_pci_driver_development_software.html

Windriver is a good tool, but it is not able to do everything that you can do with the DDK. For example looking at Filesystem calls I am not sure it could cope with. It seems to have been designed with custom hardware in mind, and shouldn't be used as a replacement for all drivers!
