WinDriver™ for VxWorks (a.k.a. DriverBuilder) automates and simplifies the
development of VxWorks device drivers for PCI / CardBus / ISA / PMC / PCI-X / PCI-104 and CompactPCI.
No VxWorks Core OS (wind® Microkernel) and API knowledge is required.
Reduce Time to Market
WinDriver provides a complete solution for creating high performance drivers, and enables you to focus on your driver's added-value functionality, instead of on the operating system internals.
Powerful Tools Included
- Hardware diagnostics
- Automatic driver code generation
- Driver debugging
- Hardware access - using our intuitive API (see WinDriver's Manual).
WinDriver provides a complete solution for creating high performance drivers
and custom hardware access applications.

Features
- Friendly Wizard:
WinDriver provides hardware verification and diagnostics, automatic code generation and driver debugging, all through a graphical DriverWizard.
- Immediate Hardware Access:
Test your hardware through a graphical user mode application, without having to write a single line of code.
- Code Generation:
WinDriver automatically generates skeletal driver code specific to your hardware, for
Visual Studio / Visual Basic / Delphi / GCC.
- Vendor Specific Support:
In addition to supporting any PCI peripheral, WinDriver includes enhanced support for leading PCI vendors, such as PLX and Altera.
This enhanced support includes vendor-specific driver samples, which can be used to further accelerate the driver development process.
