I have been trying to make my first KMDF driver which is a simple "hello world" print but I always have this error not related to the code. Am not using vcpkg
My code:
#include <ntddk.h> DRIVER_INITIALIZE Entry; NTSTATUS Entry(_In_ PDRIVER_OBJECT DriverObject, _In_ PUNICODE_STRING RegistryPath) { UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(DriverObject); UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(RegistryPath); KdPrintEx((DPFLTR_IHVDRIVER_ID, DPFLTR_INFO_LEVEL, "Hello world from ring0\n")); return STATUS_SUCCESS; }vcxproj file:
