The removal of AppDomains in the newer CLRs should make things simpler at least I would hope 20:04:59 <jborean93> yea it's actually not too bad, I just had the problem of trying to load the pwsh assembly at the same time 20:05:11 <nitzmahone> oh yeah, that's not going to end well 20:05:24 <nitzmahone> chicken/egg sandwich, anyone? ;) 20:05:27 <jborean93> Plus trying to do it in a new thread made things a bit harder. I eventually got there in the end though 20:06:46 <nitzmahone> Yeah, it's never fun when it's not your process (same problem with the UMDF stuff, since it's their host process loading the driver code) 20:09:09 <nitzmahone> The thing I'm hacking on is trying to make my Bluetooth page turn pedal work under Windows. Most of them only work on IOS/Android because they took some shortcuts with their HID keyboard emulation that prevents them from working under Windows- I think I figured out a way to fix that with a tiny filter driver that just shims the HID driver stack setup. 20:09:26 <nitzmahone> Getting it to a point I can actually build and test will be "fun" since I haven't done driver dev in many years 20:10:22 <briantist> wow that's interesting 20:10:28 <nitzmahone> Anyway, looks like nothing else new for the meeting, so will close that up 20:10:30 <nitzmahone> #endmeeting
