Hi all,

c++ usb library

the lib with USB support depends on usb device to speak with.
You'll need a Driver to communicate with...

In fact, Windows already includes driver for standard USB device such as HID devices or mass storage devices... In fact, there no lib for USB because it does not work like RS232 or LPT port. If your USB devices is among the generic USB class, you just need to interface yourself with the common driver and lib (you surely need to use DDK : Driver developpement kit in order to have headers files and lib files. )

In order to develop your own interface with usb devices, you'll need a lot of time to developp the driver (you could instead use a generic driver, like windriver or USBIO but the cost is about 3500$ for the last one) or use a driver developpement software like Driver Studio... But I wish you good luck

I really suggest you to use FTDI chip, where driver is already developped and free supplied. dll is supply to.. and the USB componants cost about 8$ by one....

nevertheless, If you really need to communicate with usb device, it hope that it's a common class device :!

HiTex do a USBIO, a universal USB device driver, i'm sure you can find it with google. This allows you to talk to any usb device, using bulk isochronous or interrupt transfers.
The source code for the driver is included, writen in M$ VC.
It exposes an interface to be used by win 32 aplications.
I have it, give me site, I will send it to you.
hope this helps.

Another good option, is to look at FTDI chips, they enumerate as a comm port. They provide royalty free drivers for all popular os.
Makes it very easy.

usb lib

USBIO is so expensive

last year : it was 4000$ for the binaries of the driver and 8000 $ for sources included

c++ usb lib

Well, apparently there's a "light" USBIO version that is free. It has some limitations, but maybe it's still enough: It comes with the following : The actual download can be found here hepp://3*w.thesycon.de/usbio/eng/dl_usb_l.htm
