Writing OS/2 2.1 Device Drivers in C, Van Nostrand Reinhold/John Wiley publisher, 550 pages, ISBN 0-442-01729-4, includes disk.
Writing OS/2 2.1 Device Drivers in C is a comprehensive guide to writing physical and virtual device drivers for OS/2 and OS/2 Warp. The book includes step by step examples of how to write you own OS2 device drivers using the included sample code. If you follow the examples in the book, you can have your first OS/2 phsyical device driver up and running in 15 minutes (The Device Driver Library is also required).
Writing OS/2 2.1 Device Drivers in C fills in all the parts that are missing from the official IBM documentation, and includes many examples that can't be found anywhere else. With over 35,000 copies sold in over 35 countries, I'm sure you will find the book worth ten times the price. You can view a short excerpt of the English version to get an idea of how the text is written.
OS/2 has undergone enormous changes over the past several years, but one thing that has not changed since the release of OS/2 1.0 is the base device driver model. Even with the recent introduction of OS/2 Warp, OS/2 Warp Connect, and Merlin (aka Warp 4), the base device driver model has remained unchanged. So even though the OS/2 version number in the title of the book is dated, the information contained in the book is still valid today.
