The FormatUsingCurrentType method formats an I/O request so that the driver can forward it, unmodified, to the next-lower driver.

void 
  FormatUsingCurrentType(
    void
    );

Parameters

None

Return Value

None

Comments

When a driver receives an I/O request, the driver might forward the request to the local I/O target, unmodified. To forward the unmodified request, the driver must:

• Call FormatUsingCurrentType to format the request so that the framework can pass the request to the driver's local I/O target.
• Call the IWDFIoRequest::Send method to send the request to the I/O target.

Example

For a code example of how to use the FormatUsingCurrentType method, see IWDFIoRequest::Send.
