Re: [libhid-discuss] Windows support?
Peter, thanks for the translations. Sorry for the German version, I thought with this amount of errors, there must be a small problem in the very beginning and is easy to solve. I attached now the MSVC errors in almost complete English. I also attached the config.h which I am using now, with some explanations added. As I said, I just added some header files to the paths, which I arbitrarily copied from different systems and programs (see comments in config.h), however, some need also the libraries for the OS, so it is basically nonsense what I did. That's why I need some help, as I don't know how to provide all the needed declarations and definitions.

Re: [libhid-discuss] Windows support?
I'm confused. libhid supports Windows, the website says it do so by using libusb. libusb's site seems to say it doesn't support Windows, but libusb-win32 does. And Xiaofan seems seems to say that libhid doesn't work with libusb-win32. Can someone tell me how I would use libhid under Windows (what does it depend on that WILL work under windows)?

Re: [libhid-discuss] Windows support?
There's more than one libusb implementation; libhid also works on Solaris, which has its own libusb, for example. If you see the libusb home page, it says Supported operating systems: Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Darwin, MacOS X (and Windows through the libusb-win32 project). The only OS specific code that I know of in libhid is the bit that requests an existing driver to detach, and afaik all implementations use the same libhid-based code right now which is portable. -Albert On Thu, 2008-03-27 at 07:33 -0400, Adrian Parker wrote: Hello all, I read in the libhid docs, aims to support all operating system supported by libusb: Linux, BSD, OS X, and Windows. This seems to say that libusb supports Windows. But libusb doesn't seem to support Windows (http://libusb.sourceforge.net/doc/intro-support.html). I note that neither libusb or libhid includes the text windows.h anywhere in their sources, so I suspect this is further indication that neither libhid or libusb supports Windows? ___ libhid-discuss mailing list libhid-discuss@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/libhid-discuss

I don't have a Windows machine to test with, and nobody has really given me any concrete suggestions on ways to patch libhid so that it will work with libusb-win32. Ok, I got the source code and I an build it with the free Visual C++.Net Express 2005. I do not have a good HID device to test this port. Anyway, just running the first example here.
