Driver programming definition

Hi All,

I think that when somebody is programming "driver" that means:

He/She is providing function(s) call(s) for upper layer programmer use.

am I right?

No, not really, or not particularly.

A driver is an implementation of some standard programming interface (API) that masks or bridges the differences between the underlying resources (usually hardware, and usually as a plug-in to an operating system, but not always).
