[Libusb-win32-devel] non-HID devices and libusb

[Hugo V. <hu...@hu...>]

Hi,
  In another thread, I explained that the usb device that we designed reports itself as an HID device. In the beginning, we did that to simplify development on Windows (no driver development). Now, with libusb on Linux, I find that my device no longer needs to be HID to work without a driver. On Windows, if I program my device to not report itself as a HID-class device (using 0xFF as the class), Windows is asking for the drivers when I plug-it in, and obviously that is not desired.

  Is there a way for a device not to report itself as HID and still be able to be installed in Windows without the need for a driver?

Hugo.
