filesystem filter driver is required

The project is to write a filesystem filter driver, mini-filter is good as well (if it will be simpler in implementation) Tasks of the driver: 1. Intercept and redirect file reads. Driver must have 2 parameters that can be specified using a config file: a) list of directory paths to monitor and intercept reads from b) directory path, where actual files will reside If any application tries to read a file from location a), driver needs to check if there is file with the same name under location b). If such file exists and has last write time the same or later than requested file, driver needs to make that this file will be read instead of requested file. This redirection must not prevent OS from caching file content in RAM. 2. Log all file reads and writes to a file In addition, it's necessary to create a console app that can install and uninstall the driver. This stage is a prototype, extensive testing is not required. This project will be continued later to produce a release quality software. ## Deliverables 1) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
