When debugging an APO, one often needs to copy a new DLL into place to
test it out. That seems to be somewhat challenging. The audiodg.exe
process has the APO DLL loaded, which means I can't replace it. In
order to replace it, I have to wait until audiodg.exe times out and
exits, something that seems to take about 3 minutes., thereby testing my
patience. Audiodg is running when the system reboots, so even a reboot
doesn't help this.
I can certainly rename the old DLL, copy the new one into place, and
then reboot, but that seems sub-optimal. Is there a way to force
audiodg.exe to timeout so I can switch APO DLLs behind its back? I'd
love to have something that is the equivalent of "devcon restart" for
kernel drivers.
I clearly understand this is not an end-user scenario, so if there is no
answer, there is no answer, but I also know that developers tend to
build shortcuts.
