Posted: Fri Jul 18, 2008 4:05 pm Post subject: weird driver errors

I'm trying to make a little test driver and the compiler keeps getting errors that seem very unusual to me seeing as I don't see anything at all that's wrong in the code, or at least that's wrong pertaining to the errors. Here are the errors:

Here's my code:

NTSTATUS DriverEntry(PDRIVER_OBJECT pDriverObject, PUNICODE_STRING pRegistryPath) {
DbgPrint("DriverEntry called.");
DbgPrint("Declaring variables...");

DbgPrint("Variables declared.");
DbgPrint("Initializing strings...");

RtlInitUnicodeString(&usDosDeviceName, "\\DosDeviceName\\Test");
DbgPrint("Strings initialized.");
DbgPrint("Creating device object...");
NtStatus = IoCreateDevice(pDriverObject, 0, &usDriverName, FILE_DEVICE_UNKNOWN, FILE_SECURE_OPEN, FALSE, pDeviceObject);
if(NtStatus != STATUS_SUCCESS) {
   DbgPrint("IoCreateDevice failed with error: %i", NtStatus);
   DbgPrint("Unloading driver...");
   pDriverObject->DriverUnload;
   return NtStatus;
}
DbgPrint("Device object created.");
DbgPrint("Creating symbolic link...");
NtStatus = IoCreateSymbolicLink(&usDosDeviceName, &usDriverName);
if(NtStatus != STATUS_SUCCESS) {
   DbgPrint("IoCreateSymbolicLink failed with error: %i", NtStatus);
   DbgPrint("Unloading driver...");
   pDriverObject->DriverUnload;
   return NtStatus;
}
DbgPrint("Symbolic link created.");
DbgPrint("Deleting symbolic link...");
NtStatus = IoDeleteSymbolicLink(&usDosDeviceName);
if(NtStatus != STATUS_SUCCESS) {
   DbgPrint("IoDeleteSymbolicLink failed with error: %i", NtStatus);
   DbgPrint("Unloading driver...");
   pDriverObject->DriverUnload;
   return NtStatus;
}
DbgPrint("Symbolic link deleted.");
DbgPrint("Unloading driver...");
pDriverObject->DriverUnload;
return STATUS_SUCCESS;
}

Learn to program in C. All variable declarations have to be in the beginning of the function before anything else.

Agh

I didn't expect it to be that different. Oh well, btw, is there anyway I could compile it as if it is C++? Do I just save it as a .cpp file or is there a compiler option?

EDIT:

New error... x_x

There is your answer right there:

Code:

c:\drivers\drivermain.c(10) : warning C4133: 'function' : incompatible types - from 'char [13]' to 'PCWSTR'
c:\drivers\drivermain.c(11) : warning C4133: 'function' : incompatible types - from 'char [20]' to 'PCWSTR'
c:\drivers\drivermain.c(11) : warning C4133: 'function' : incompatible types - from 'char [20]' to 'PCWSTR'
c:\drivers\drivermain.c(14) : warning C4047: 'function' : 'PDEVICE_OBJECT *' differs in levels of indirection from 'PDEVICE_OBJECT'
c:\drivers\drivermain.c(14) : warning C4047: 'function' : 'PDEVICE_OBJECT *' differs in levels of indirection from 'PDEVICE_OBJECT'
c:\drivers\drivermain.c(14) : warning C4024: 'IoCreateDevice' : different types for formal and actual parameter 7
c:\drivers\drivermain.c(14) : warning C4024: 'IoCreateDevice' : different types for formal and actual parameter 7

Needed unicode strings here:

Code:

RtlInitUnicodeString(&usDriverName, L"\\Device\\Test");
RtlInitUnicodeString(&usDosDeviceName, L"\\DosDeviceName\\Test");

Fixed last param here:

Code:

IoCreateDevice(pDriverObject, 0, &usDriverName, FILE_DEVICE_UNKNOWN, FILE_SECURE_OPEN, FALSE, &pDriverObject->DeviceObject);

Thanks. Btw, is there anyway to code drivers with MBCS instead of Unicode?

EDIT:

IoCreateDevice failed during runtime x_x
