Build errors

[Mrngg]

Hello,

I know this is pretty old but any help would be appreciated.
I'm trying to build your project from source, but I get errors, on Windows 7 64 bit, Visual Studio 2015.

Log when trying to build the driver:

And log when trying to build the 32bit dll:

Error LNK1104 cannot open file 'inpout32.lib' InstallDriver C:\Users\Milan\Desktop\sourceDLLs\InstallDriver\LINK 1

The 64bit dll builds just fine.

Thanks for any help.

Urm, off the top of my head, I cant think what the problem could be. I presume the DDK you are using is quite new (10.x) and the last time I compiled the driver it was a much older DDK - that could be the source of the problems.

I cant sign the built driver so I haven't built it for some time - I will try and have a look in more detail when I get a bit of time (I've been away this weekend). I didn't write the code (just ported to x64) and my knowledge of the DDK is rather limited - but I will d/l the new DDK and see what I can find.

Thanks,
Phil

Thank you for your help. If you figure something out, please let me know.

I Haven't figured out the Win10 DDK yet - I'm unable to build anything with it. Its been years since I last built InpOut32 (bear in mind that I didn't write it, I just ported it to x64) and the DDK is not something that I am overly familiar with.

I haven't even got as far as the build errors you listed I wonder if the Windows 10 DDK supports building the legacy type drivers such as InpOut32.

The driver seems to build OK with the Windows 7 DDK (v7600.16385.1)

Thank you for your help. If you figure something out, please let me know.

Hey Mrngg, did you get past these errors on Windows 7?

[Darryn]

Curious to see if anyone could build with the visual studio 2015 + ddk combination and get the driver to run.
Any luck out there?
I get the following:

MSB3073 The command "ddkbuild -WNETA64 free" exited with code 9009

Anybody make heads or tails of this one...

Seeing the same error with 2019..

For the driver, the "No target architecture defined" error usually means you haven't set the target platform in your project settings (like x64 or x86). Make sure that's configured correctly. Also, that "ddkbuild" error suggests your Windows Driver Kit (WDK) might not be set up properly in Visual Studio.
The 32-bit DLL, the "_inp" and "_outp" errors mean you're missing the necessary header file that defines those functions. Try including <conio.h> at the top of your inpout32drv.cpp file.
If it doesn't work idk what else to do.
