Hi there,
With Wireshark, I'm trying to modify it to send NDIS requests to a wifi
card driver on windows OS. To do this I need to call CreateFile() and pass a
string of device name to it. However, what exactly a device name should I
pass?
I have the following device name, e.g.
\Device\NPF_{4C2DF402-629E-4C4B-B0A9-CF5A85D1DED4}
and device description:
XXXX Wireless Network Adapter (Microsoft's Packet Scheduler)
In some sample code I can find I see people adding a prefix '\\\\.\\' to
device name. Is
\\.\\Device\NPF_{4C2DF402-629E-4C4B-B0A9-CF5A85D1DED4} what I should use? I
tried it but still got an invalid handle. So what exact string I should
pass in this example?
Here is the code I'm calling:
HANDLE hFile = CreateFile((LPCTSTR)tmp,
GENERIC_READ,
FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE,
NULL,
OPEN_EXISTING,
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY,
NULL);
Many thanks,
Joshua
