No access to the Windows source code? Well, Microsoft offers the next best thing. Microsoft Detours 2.1 is now available as a free download.




According to the Redmond company, as long as the solution is deployed exclusively on 32-bit platforms, and into research, non-commercial, and non-production environments, Detours is up for grabs under a no-fee, click-through license. The download is aimed at developers that feel the full pain of not being able to hook as deep into Windows as they would like to.

With Windows locked up, Microsoft itself admits that instrumenting and extending functionality associated with the platform or with the applications designed to run on top of it is not an easy task.

“Developers can now significantly enhance their product features by taking greater advantage of Windows functionality through Microsoft Detours. Already, more than 50 ISVs have licensed this research project. Detours can be used to intercept 32-bit and 64-bit functions,” revealed Robert Flaming, program manager on the Windows Installer team.
