Is this a valid INF directive?

[Jerry West]

I noticed this delimiter within an INF file. I can't find any documentation
within the MSDN that states this is valid. Is anyone familiar with this type
of undecorated section? Can someone confirm it is valid?

Thanks!

So, did you search the INF file to see it's usage? It's a local LABEL used
by installation to locate things within the INF file.

 

[Jerry West]

Yes I did. It simply appears as a INF section with no other declaration of
its use. See for yourself:

Do you still believe it is valid?

I guess you are referring to this one. This is a bug. It should be
Xscan.CopyFiles. I think it got corrected in XP.
