[Uri Habusha] I have to say that this sentence isn't clear. It says what to do when WdfDeviceCreate function is failed. It doesn't say what to do if it success. "After the driver calls WdfDeviceCreate, it can no longer access the WDFDEVICE_INIT structure" [Uri Habusha] Is it appears in documentation or is it your interpretation. I didn't found it in my doc (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff546050(VS.85).aspx) I interpret this to mean that once WdfDeviceCreate() succeeds, then there cannot be a call to WdfDeviceInitFree(). [Uri Habusha] okay I can live with that, - Sean _______________________________________________ ofw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openfabrics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ofw
