ReplaceDriverWithFragment

ReplaceDriverWithFragment replaces a driver that is already installed with a new driver contained in a CFM fragment. It sends replace and superseded calls to the drivers, as described in Replace and Superseded Routines.

OSErr sReplaceDriverWithFragment(
                     DriverRefNum theRefNum,
                     CFragConnectionID fragmentConnID);
theRefNum
Reference number of the driver to be replaced.
fragmentConnID
CFM connection ID for the new driver fragment.
DESCRIPTION

Given the unit table reference number of an installed driver in theRefNum, ReplaceDriverWithFragment replaces that driver with a new driver contained in a CFM fragment identified by fragmentConnID. It sends replace and superseded calls to both drivers, as described in Replace and Superseded Routines.

Note

The CFM fragmentConnID variable should be freed when the driver is unloaded.
