I tried to start an OS/2 Device Driver Programming echo a few months ago,
and got almost no interest.
I do have a number of files you might want:
CDISK.ZIP 248K 4-23-93 Companion disk for Writing OS/2 Device Drivers in
C
ERRATADD.ZIP 7K 6-03-92 Errata for Writing Device Drivers in C-Mastrianni
DEMODD.ZIP 68K 4-11-93 OS/2 demo device driver programming examples and C
header files
OS2_DD.ZIP 17K 12-07-94 OS/2 Device Driver Kit: Another approach to
building OS/2 PDDs with Watcom C, based on
Mastrianni's "Writing OS/2 2.1 Device Drivers in
C"
SCSIPG.ZIP 313K 3-26-93 OS/2 SCSI Device Driver Programming Kit
WATCOM.TXT 4K 11-21-94 OS/2 Device Driver Kit: Information about Watcom C
being used in place of Microsoft C 6.0
WATDD01.ZIP 39K 10-09-94 OS/2 Device Driver Kit: Set of libraries for
developing PDD's using Watcom C++ V10. (Use -d
switch when UNZIPPING with DOS PKUNZIP.)
SAMPDR.ZIP 21K 6-08-93 Skeleton for writing OS/2 device drivers with
Borland C for DOS
I recommend against using Mastrianni's approach or anything based on it,
since he renames all of the DevHelp API. Any device driver programmer
should use the IBM standard DevHelp calls rather than waste time with the
Mastrianni variants. By far the most useful files above for a Watcom user
are WATCOM.TXT and WATDD01.ZIP, and even the latter requires substantial
tweaking to make it work, in addition to many totally undocumented issues.
DEMODD.ZIP and SCSIPG.ZIP are probably next most useful, with SAMPDR.ZIP
being of interest for those in its specialized tools approach.
