libusb host program for PLX NET20DC debug device

[stuge]

#can't attach the Makefile so here it is:
LDFLAGS=-lusb
TARGET=usb_debug_io
SRC=$(TARGET).c

$(TARGET): $(SRC)

gcc -Wall -g -o $@ $(SRC) $(LDFLAGS)

clean:

rm -f $(TARGET)

Not much point in having this code. The usb-serial generic module can do the job just as well, and provides a ttyUSBx interface for any existing serial port utilities. Run

# modprobe usb-serial vendor=0x0525 product=0x127a

to load the driver and associate it with the NET20DC, either before or after the device is connected to the host.

Greg K-H is working on a specific driver for the device (class) as well.

If someone wants to use it on anything but Linux just reopen the ticket. :)

To compile this on MacOS X, install libusb from MacPorts? and compile the program with:

gcc -O2 -Wall usb_debug_io.c /opt/local/lib/libusb.a -o usb_debug_io -I/opt/local/include/ -framework IOKit -framework CoreFoundation
