Cannot declare variable at all with Windows Driver Kit build environment

问题

I have a trivial driver, like so:

#include <ntddk.h>

NTSTATUS DriverEntry(__in DRIVER_OBJECT* a, __in UNICODE_STRING* b)
{
    UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(a);
    UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(b);

    int c; // this fails the build

    return 0;
}

A trivial makefile

TARGETNAME=main
TARGETTYPE=DRIVER
MSC_WARNING_LEVEL=/W4 /WX
SOURCES=main.c

With a non trival build output

C:\Test>pushd %cd%

How on Earth can this result in a error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before 'type'?

Not all declerations fail, I seem to be able to declare globals but not local variables.

回答1:

The problem is that Microsoft C compilers only support C89 standard, which does not permit the intermingling of declarations and code. Change to:

{
    int c;

    UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(a);
    UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(b);
