Accessing the Virtual Smart Card from Windows applications
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Running |vpcd| under Windows is currently not supported, because it implements
a smart card driver specific for PCSC-Lite (:command:`pcscd`). This means, that
although you can run |vpicc| under Windows (for example in relay mode), it
can't be accessed by Windows' smart card applications.
However, there are several more or less complicated paths you can go:
- Run |vpcd|/:command:`pcscd` in Linux and use :ref:`pcsc-relay` to forward the
|vpicc| via NFC to a contactless reader which is attached to the Windows
machine. This has been tested tested with a ACR122U (touchatag).
- Run your windows machine as virtual machine in a Linux host. Then run
|vpcd|/:command:`pcscd` in the Linux host and grab the |vpicc| with the
:ref:`ccid-emulator`. Now forward the emulated USB device to the Windows VM.
This is easy, but the :ref:`ccid-emulator` is not tested very well under
Windows.
- Use the combination above (|vpcd|/:ref:`ccid-emulator` under Linux) on a
device, that you can put in USB client mode. Then use a USB connector to
physically connect the Linux machine in client mode to the Windows machine.
- Port the |vpcd| from PCSC-Lite to Windows' PC/SC service. Then, |vpcd| runs
natively under Windows. Although |vpcd| is relatively simple and should be
POSIX compliant, this could be a lot of work.
- Run |vpcd|/:command:`pcscd` under Cygwin on the Windows machine. This has
been reported to work, but it is unclear whether you can use PCSC-Lite as
PC/SC provider for a native Windows application.
