<span style="color:#FF0000">[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]</span>
<H3>SUMMARY</H3></FONT><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE=2><P>
This directory builds the Tape class driver for Microsoft&#174; Windows&#174; 2000. The class driver implements
device-independent support, and exports support routines for device-specific tape miniclass drivers.
It handles device-independent tape requests and calls the tape minidriver routines to process
device-specific functions. Class driver splits transfer requests, when necessary, to fit the maximum transfer size for the underlying host bus adapter. It also provides device-independent, tape-specific error handling, and calls the tape miniclass driver's device-specific error handling routines.
<P>
No INF file is needed to install this driver. This driver is installed when a tape minidriver is installed. <P>
<H3>BUILDING THE SAMPLE</H3></FONT><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE=2><P>
The sample requires that the Windows 2000 DDK be installed so that the required headers and libs are available.<P>
To build the sample, run <B>build</B> from the sample directory. The compiled binaries will be placed in the appropriate platform directory (that is, i386 or Alpha). This will produce one binary: Tape.sys.<P>
This driver has been tested on all 32-bit versions of Windows 2000. It compiles under Microsoft Visual&#174; C++ 6.0 and compiles without error for 64-bit systems, but binaries have not been tested in 64-bit systems.
