It is possible to build a driver using the 10.3.x macosx and load them on later system. The key to the kernel binary compatibility is the use of the OSMetaClass macros to tell the link loader where to find the vtables that need to be patched at load time. You are getting a link loader failure so that make sme think that there may be some problem with your OSDeclare... and OSDefine... macros. *** is not compatible with it's superclass, 12IOUserClient superclass Hi Boris, Thanks for the reply.
