The main issue that I see supporting a mixed DDK and WDK build environment is that you need to change into multiple directories before building. I would think a simple batch file could be used to select the correct sub-directory before issuing the build command. For example, once you convert driver X to WDK, you remove its directory from the parent dirs file. This removes it from the DDK build. Then add its directory into a batch file (say etc\wdkbuild.bat) that can be invoked for building. Once all drivers have been converted, we fix-up the dirs files and remove the wdkbuild.bat file. Supporting a mixed environment shouldn't be a huge issue. I would rather see drivers merged into the trunk sooner. Otherwise, we end up replacing all of the drivers in the trunk in one swoop. - Sean _______________________________________________ ofw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ofw
