Utter nonsense. You can use whatever editor you want. If you like the
editor in VS2005, then use the editor in VS2005. You can do that even if
you pop out to a cmd shell to do build, but the advantage of DDKBUILD.BAT
is that it lets you press F7 from inside VS2005, just like a user-mode
project.
Is there any automation tool allowing us to create a template project type
which frees us the creating to these basic files? That is creating a basic
DDK project skeleton for us.
Walter Oney shipped one with his WDM driver book, but starting from one of
the samples is probably a better plan at this point. The book is somewhat
dated at this point.
Additional, can you show me what tool do you use to create a basic DDK
project skeleton? Do you use a favorate editor to create SOURCES, MAKEFILE
and various *.c files and then use DDKBuild.bat to build it? I am curious
about your advice :-)
I almost always start from one of the DDK samples. I use vim as my primary
editor, and build from a command line. However, many people have good luck
using the VS2005 IDE with DDKBUILD.
