RegMon was just one of the examples. But basically, RegMon uses vxd driver for Windows 9x. For XP it uses NT driver which hooks SDT. On Server 2003 it uses legacy registry notification API. UMDF support started from XP. It does not cover 2k. Also, UMDF is just a part of WDF. However, I think it will be good to implement basic things, like NT drivers support. 2008/2/23, Dan Kegel <dank06@xxxxxxxxx>: > > Volodymyr Shcherbyna <v_scherbina@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > > >>>[many apps use helper device drivers, e.g. RegMon, FileMon, TDIMom] > > > > http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/ntoskrnl.exe/ntoskrnl.c > > > Unfortunately, that code just do stubs, and it is not actually executed > in > > kernel mode. > > > The current ntoskrnl.c is enough to run a few apps. > It's not intended to run arbitrary NT drivers. > > Now, RegMon uses a VxD, and I don't think we're ever planning on > really supporting those.
