I am currently using AVRDude to communicate with my devices over a virtual
com port and an FT232R (USB <-> UART bridge). I see that AVRDude has a
programmer type called avrftdi, but I don't think it provides a solution to
my problem. At the moment, when I want to communicate with my device, I
have the ability to use the FT232R in native USB mode through the vendor
supplied DLL. However, when I want to access the bootloader, I have to
change the EEPROM in the FT232R to enumerate as a VCP. Then, AVRDude can
communicate using "-c avr911 -P comXX".

What I want is a way to communicate with the AVR using the supplied DLL
over a native USB interface without needing the VCP at all. Can AVRDude
already do this?

Basically, I am asking if AVRDude uses any of the API calls in the FTDI
provided DLL called FTD2XX.DLL such as FT_Write() and FT_Read() to write
and read bytes from the AVR. I do not want to enumerate my device as a VCP,
but I still want to be able to communicate with the bootloader using a VCP.

Thanks,
Tony
