Sample Registry Entry for UVC Extension Units

This topic contains a sample registry entry that you can use to support Extension Units.

The entries must be added to the HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\NodeInterfaces registry subkey. This registry subkey contains property set GUID values and the IID and CLSID values for the interfaces that correspond to that property set.

Verify that:

• The property set GUID matches the GUID in the Extension Unit descriptor.

• The IID and CLSID values in the NodeInterfaces subkey are stored in binary, little-endian form.

Thus, an IID value of {12345678-1234-5678-0123456789abcdef} would be stored as:

78 56 34 12 34 12 78 56 01 23 45 67 89 ab cd ef

• The GUIDs must be unique and should be generated by using Guidgen.exe, a tool that is included in the Microsoft Windows SDK.

Include the following code in the registry script, arbitrarily named Xusample.rgs:

HKLM
{
    NoRemove SYSTEM
    {
        NoRemove CurrentControlSet
        {
            NoRemove Control
            {
                NoRemove NodeInterfaces
                {
                    ForceRemove {xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-
                       xxxxxxxxxxxx} = s 'Extension Unit
                       Property Set'
                    {
                        val IID = b 'yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
                           yyyyyyyyyyyyy'
                        val CLSID = b 'zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
                           zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz'
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

To support installation by registering the plug-in DLL, add the following code to your registry script:

HKCR
{
    NoRemove CLSID
    {
         ForceRemove {zzzzzzzz-zzzz-zzzz-zzzz-zzzzzzzzzzzz} = s 'CompanyName Extension Unit Interface'
        {
            InprocServer32 = s '%MODULE%'
                                                {
                                val ThreadingModel = s 'Both'
                                                }
        }

    }
}
