Yes, I understood what you meant. I'm merely fishing for something that might help shed some light to our issue.

Too bad, seems we need an OS X maintainer or what? Amazing how difficult it is to create decent cross platform USB library ... I've lost track how many efforts I've seen over the years. ATM libusb is dead as far as I'm concerned, it is not going anywhere (has not been for years) and without supported Windows backend and a person to support it I don't think it will go anywhere fast. I'm betting that the hopefully brisk progress of libusbx, especially with it's hopefully equally excellent Windows support will gather a critical user mass and overtake all the other usb libraries. br Kusti ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
