[vbox-dev] creating a custom device dll and adding it via PDM

[Brad Keifenheim]

Hello,

I'm evaluating creating a PCI device to emulate some custom hardware for a
virtual machine.

My research<http://www.cs.montana.edu/%7Eandrew.hamilton/cs560/VirtualBox/Introduction.html>has
led me to PDM:

*PDM (Pluggable Device Manager), an abstract interface between the VMM and
emulated devices which separates device implementations from VMM internals
and makes it easy to add new emulated devices. Through PDM, third-party
developers can add new virtual devices to VirtualBox without having to
change VirtualBox itself.*

Can someone point me to an example that shows how to setup a library that
gets loaded at runtime and provides the required API?

Also, is there a def or header file somewhere that outlines how to setup
the dll?

Thank you in advance for the help.

Brad
