CreateFile writing Time Stamp
Posted by SoftEngi@gmail.com on September 23rd, 2005


On making a call to createfile on a drive, the function write access
timestamp on the drive. And it does not return the control to the
calling application till it is successful in doing so.

The problem is that my driver is monitoring the said drive to open and
cannot allow the write to go through till he is able to communicate
with the application and this is resulting in a deadlock.

Can anybody suggest me, how can I make the function not to write this
timestamp on to the drive. Or if there is some other function available
which can solve the purpose.

Thanks in Advance.
