File system Driver: File Properties window problem.
Posted by hitesh on May 31st, 2007


hello,
I am developing a file system driver right now.
I am successfully able to create file and directory.
There is a problem after that.
After creating the file when i right click on file my driver hangs,
The request IRP_MN_QUERY_DIRECTORY comes repeatedly.
I dont know how and why it is coming continuously?
please help me to solve this problem,
if you didn't understand my question completely then please ask me,
thanks in advance,
regards,
Hitesh

There are a lot of operations that can cause repeated checks on the file.
You are probably returning the data incorrectly.

This type of discussion is better served over at NTFSD at
http://www.osronline.com/ since that is where file system people (including
Microsofts) hang out.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
but one more thing i forget to tell you that, this problem is not
reproducable in other systems.
as i tried it on other system and it is working fine there is not
problem.
Can you please tell me a little bit in brief in possible.

As you replied that "i am not returning the data correctly"
did you mean "In the first request i am not returning the data
correctly"
so it is generating request till it gets the correct data.
is it correct?

regards,
hitesh
