MINI - Sample Print Mini-Drivers Workspaces

SUMMARY

Minidriver Development Tool (MDT) is the application that should be used to convert minidrivers from their old source format (Microsoft® Windows® 95 and 98, Microsoft Windows® 3.x, Microsoft Windows NT® 4.0) to the Microsoft Windows® 2000/Windows® XP/Windows® Server 2003 source format. This application displays the converted Windows® 2000/Windows® XP/Windows® Server 2000 source files in a logical representation known as a workspace. You can launch these workspaces by using MDT to open MDW files. Within the MDW folder are sample directories Pcl5eres, Ep24res, Ep9res, and so on, all have their own MDW files, which can be used to launch their workspaces. Please see the main DDK documentation set for more information on the MDT and workspaces. GPD files are used for creating Unidrv minidrivers. A Unidrv minidriver consists of a text-based generic printer description (GPD), which can be contained in one or more GPD files.

BUILDING THE SAMPLE

To build the samples simply run "build" from this directory. This will compile the GPD resource DLLs.
