Hi everyone I'm working on a project involving a USB device connected to an Android 4.0.3 Tablet with host port. I did find a software library that does pretty much exactly what I need. It is written in Python though. Since porting the library to java would be a major hassle and I prefer Python anyways I took a look at SL4A, the scripting layer for Android. Turns out that running Python on Android is actually quite easy as long as you use pure python modules only. In my project this is the case. The library I want to use has dependencies to pyserial and pyusb which are both pure Python. The only problem I have is that pyusb won't detect the usb backend that is used in Android. I didn't find any developer documentation about the Android USB system but I noticed that instead of libusb there is a library called libusbhost. The header file looks different from libusb.h. Would it be at all possible to add the Android usb backend to pyusb? I'm a decent Python programmer but I've never done anything with it involving native libraries.
