"NUL" device is missing

Posted: 05-13-2004, 09:55 PM
In my build of WinXPe that I have running under VMware Workstation v4.5.1, I
have an application that is failing due to the "NUL" device not being
present. The application depends on the "NUL" device to be present so that
it can count the # of bytes of output that are produced by one of the
fprintf() functions w/o actually having any output produced. The "NUL"
device is present on WinXP Home, WinXP Pro and WinXP Tablet PC, as well as
in all versions of WinNT v4.0, Win2K and Win2K3.

What component would I need to add to my WinXPe build in the Target Designer
in order to get the "NUL" device included in my build?


TIA,

Chuck
