The D2XX library uses a background thread to constantly read all available data into a memory buffer on the host. That's the reason it can tell you how many bytes are in the buffer ;) At least that's my current knowledge about it. Thomas -- libftdi - see http://www.intra2net.com/en/developer/libftdi for details.
