Is anyone familiar with how to identify a USB pnp event with Perl on a Windows (win32 system)?
There is Device::USB (Use libusb to access USB devices) but it suitable for linux, and in order to work in Windows it require libusb and even that not require it to works, is there any other option to identify if a USB device is plugged or unplugged on a Win32 system with Perl? If yes, could someone show an example?
There is an Device::USB for Windows for ActiveState Perl 5.10
Device::USB under Win32 has bugs... and it crashes perl.exe :-) never got that before ;-) but i need this package and i hope the bugs will soon be fixed!
I think the biggest problem for the package is Inline::C
The most problems come when you receive large amounts of data (>10 bytes). One of the first things I removed was the pakage Carp, it does more bad than good with this package under win32.
Anyone got it working good under WinXP?!
