Re: [Libnifalcon-devel] Update on alpha 5 status

[Liam K. <qua...@go...>]

Hi Kyle,

I've been a bit busy lately, but today i'm having ago at adding libnifalcon
support to HAPI in linux. If only i was half a productive as you are im sure
i would have got to this stage ages ago.

I'm also busy writing a JNI for HAPI and maybe able to do one for
libnifalcon later if you or someones doesnt beat me to it. I'm writing JNI
directly for HAPI as i havent used it before but would like to have a go at
SWIG so maybe i'll try that.

just out of curiosity.. so libusb removes the need for libftdi completely? I
was suprised by that, how come? doesnt it need to do the RS232 stuff at the
falcon end? I thought what was needed was libftdi that used USB1.0 but looks
like you got round it, or ive got it all wrong.

cheers,
