Abstract
The subject invention relates to systems and methods that facilitate automatic version level updates of driver components in the context of an operating system framework. In one aspect, an automated computer versioning system is provided. The system includes a version library supplying various components of an operating system framework, wherein the version library defines revision levels and interfaces for the components of the operating system framework. A loader automatically distributes the interfaces in order to facilitate functional interactions with the operating system framework, whereby such distribution of the interfaces is based in part on a change in the revision levels.
