THE METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SUPPORTING DEVICE DRIVER DEVELOPMENT

A method and a system for supporting development of a disk driver are provided to enhance stability of a driver program and to reduce a development period by utilizing source codes certified to a certain degree. A method for supporting development of a disk driver comprises the following several steps. A development tool is initialized(S310), receives a request for finding source codes from a user(S320), and then gets connected to a disk driver source code storage server over the internet(S330). The disk driver source code storage server searches for the source codes requested via a browsing module in the first and the second repository, transfers the search result to the development tool, and makes the development tool display the transferred search result for a user(S340). The development tool receives a request for downloading specific source codes from the user(S350), and then the server downloads the corresponding source codes to the development tool via a download module(S360). The user finishes modifying the downloaded source codes, and the development tool compiles the modified source codes(S370). Accordingly, the development tool finishes developing the device driver(S380).
