There are servral USB libraries out there. I have tried libusb and it won't work for me. I cannot connect my USB device with that library because my driver for that USB device is using usbser.sys
driver. My USB device is a Communication Device Class (CDC).
The only USB library that works for me is QtSerialPort
(I have not tested Win32 API yet) and now to the question: If QtSerialPort
only works for my USB device, what API does QtSerialPort
use then? Does QtSerialPort
use internal Win32 API functions, or own internal API?
CodePudding user response:
On Windows, QtSerialPort uses the Windows API to communicate with serial ports (CreateFile, WriteFile, ReadFile, SetCommTimeouts, etc.).
