[ros-dev] Installing driver without reboot

[Maxime Daniel]

Hi,

Is it possible to install a driver (virtual network interface) witout reboot the system ?
I tried TAP interface (installation with devcon: devcon install inf-file tap0901) but the interface is only loaded during the next reboot (same for a ndis sample from DDK)

Is there a way to load a driver interface with a true plug'n'play mechanism ?
