To install this driver, copy the driver sccsni.vxd to your system directory. Then from Explorer double-click on the reg-file to register the driver. PCMCIA Smart Card Reader ------------------------ This is a Plug and Play driver for Windows 95. To install this driver copy the file pscr.vxd and pscr.inf onto a floppy and simply insert the pcmcia card into a reader. Windows 95 will prompt you to insert the floppy disk to install the driver. Note: you'll get some warning messages when you 'compile' the rc file. You may safely ignore these warnings. You'll also get 4 warning messages from the linker which you can also safely ignore. Building Components ------------------- To build a version of a driver, open a Dos Window and go to your DDK directory. Enter 'ddkenv 32 comm'. Select the directory of the driver you want to build (e.g. cd scard\samples\pscr). Type 'nmake'. The driver will be built in the sub-directory bin (non-debug) or bind (debug), respectively. To change from non-debug to debug and vice versa change the option DEBUG= to DEBUG=1 in the corresponding makefile. Installing debug components --------------------------- In order to get debugging messages you need to install the debug-components. By installing the kernel mode library smclib.vxd into your system directory you'll be enabled to see debug messages and debug assertions in a connected debugger like rterm. To get debug messages of the smart card resource manager simply copy the file scardsvr.exe into your system directory.
