libusb 1.0 Windows binary snapshot - README
*********************************************************************
* The latest version of this snapshot can always be downloaded at: *
* https://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb/files/ *
*********************************************************************
o Visual Studio:
- Open existing or create a new project for your application
- Copy libusb.h, from the include\libusb-1.0\ directory, into your project and
make sure that the location where the file reside appears in the 'Additional
Include Directories' section (Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> General).
- Copy the relevant .lib file from MS32\ or MS64\ and add 'libusb-1.0.lib' to
your 'Additional Dependencies' (Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input)
Also make sure that the directory where libusb-1.0.lib resides is added to
'Additional Library Directories' (Configuration Properties -> Linker
-> General)
- If you use the static version of the libusb library, make sure that
'Runtime Library' is set to 'Multi-threaded DLL (/MD)' (Configuration
Properties -> C/C++ -> Code Generation).
NB: If your application requires /MT (Multi-threaded/libCMT), you need to
recompile a static libusb 1.0 library from source.
- Compile and run your application. If you use the DLL version of libusb-1.0,
remember that you need to have a copy of the DLL either in the runtime
directory or in system32
o WDK/DDK:
- The following is an example of a sources files that you can use to compile
a libusb 1.0 based console application. In this sample ..\libusb\ is the
directory where you would have copied libusb.h as well as the relevant
libusb-1.0.lib
TARGETNAME=your_app
TARGETTYPE=PROGRAM
USE_MSVCRT=1
UMTYPE=console
INCLUDES=..\libusb;$(DDK_INC_PATH)
TARGETLIBS=..\libusb\libusb-1.0.lib
SOURCES=your_app.c
- Note that if you plan to use libCMT instead of MSVCRT (USE_LIBCMT=1 instead
of USE_MSVCRT=1), you will need to recompile libusb to use libCMT. This can
easily be achieved, in the DDK environment, by running 'ddk_build /MT'
o MinGW/cygwin
- Copy libusb.h, from include/libusb-1.0/ to your default include directory,
and copy the MinGW32/ or MinGW64/ .a files to your default library directory.
Or, if you don't want to use the default locations, make sure that you feed
the relevant -I and -L options to the compiler.
- Add the '-lusb-1.0' linker option when compiling.
o Additional information:
- The libusb 1.0 API documentation can be accessed at:
http://api.libusb.info
- For some libusb samples (including source), please have a look in examples/
- For additional information on the libusb 1.0 Windows backend please visit:
http://windows.libusb.info
- The MinGW and MS generated DLLs are fully interchangeable, provided that you
use the import libs provided or generate one from the .def also provided.
- If you find any issue, please visit http://libusb.info/ and check the
Support section
