Abstract
The present invention relates to a driver architecture and method for enabling an application (10) to write data to a non-memory addressable embedded device wherein at least a portion of an addressable memory is allocated to the application (10) and a content written to the addressable memory space is flushed to a memory (30) of the non-memory addressable embedded device. The driver (20) will then flush at certain moments, either determined by the driver (20) itself or initiated by the application (10), the data from the virtual video memory to the real memory (30). Thereby, drivers for non-memory addressable display adapters are enabled to actively write to a display. As a result, the adaptors can be used in combination with any popular open source architecture.
