Install driver using InstallShield

Question

I need to create an InstallShield 12 project that installs a driver on WinXP or higher. How can I do it using InstallShield 12?

Answer 1

What we usually do is write a DLL (in C or C++) which uses SetupAPI calls (SetupDiXXX and UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices) to do all the installation work.

And then, have the installer script(IS, Inno, Wise) make calls into this DLL.
