FIX: Wi-Fi profiles cannot be installed when you use IHV configuration in Windows Embedded Compact 7

View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

You have an independent hardware vendor (IHV) Extension that is loaded on a Windows Embedded Compact 7-based device.
You try to use an IHV Native Wi-Fi Extension for Windows Embedded Compact 7.
You use CmAddConnectionConfig() to add a profile that will use the IHV Extension.
You add an <IHV> tag in the XAML file.
You build the IHV Extension DLL.

In this situation, the build fails.

The expected behavior is that the IHV Extension DLL configuration entry points will be called by using QueryUIRequest(DOT11EXTIHV_QUERY_UI_REQUEST), ProcessUIResponse(DOT11EXTIHV_PROCESS_UI_RESPONSE), and IsUIRequestPending(DOT11EXTIHV_IS_UI_REQUEST_PENDING).
