Annotation of q_a/samples/ddk/instdrv/readme.txt, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       root        1: The INSTRDRV sample demonstrates how to use the Win32 Service Control
                      2: Manager APIs to install, start, stop, and delete a kernel-mode device
                      3: driver.  It consists of a Win32 console application ("INSTSRV") and a
                      4: simple NT kernel-mode device driver ("SIMPLDRV").
                      5: 
                      6: Instructions for use:
                      7: 
                      8:     1. Type "nmake /f instdrv.mak" to compile and link the
                      9:        INSTDRV executable program.
                     10: 
                     11:     2. Run the NTDDK\SETENV.BAT script to set up a DDK build
                     12:        environment.  If you are running a target/host machine
                     13:        debug setup then you'll want to create a "checked"
                     14:        environment so you can watch the debug info generated
                     15:        by the driver, otherwise specify a "free" build
                     16:        environment.
                     17: 
                     18:     3. Compile and link the driver by typing "build -cef". The
                     19:        built driver (SIMPLDRV.SYS) will reside in
                     20:        <ddk_root>\lib\*\*.
                     21: 
                     22:     4. Once INSTDRV.EXE and SIMPLDRV.SYS have been built,
                     23:        run the INSTDRV.EXE program.
