SUMMARY

The Event.exe sample demonstrates one way that a Windows NT kernel-mode device driver can share and explicitly signal an Event Object with a Win32 application. The sample is composed of two parts: a Windows NT kernel-mode device driver, and a Win32 console test application. Both parts are built using the Windows NT DDK.
