| v2.2.7 (07/31/2010) - Fixed
libusb-1.0 support.
This was broken when ISO endpoint support was added.
- HasLibUsbDriver()()()() property
This property will always return true.
- Fixed
32bit applications not running on 64bit operating systems. (Windows)
If LibUsbDotNet is compiled as Win32 instead of Any CPU it would not work on 64bit operating systems with libusb-win32.
- Updated
InfWizard with embedded libusb-win32 v1.2.1 driver resource package.
- Updated
default UsbEndpointBase.MaxReadWrite changed back to 65536. This is the limit at which libusbdotnet begins splitting transfers.
v2.2.6 (07/10/2010) - Removed
libusb-win32 (ludn) source branch.
The LUDN edition of libusb-win32 has been discontinued as it is no longer needed.
LibUsbDotNet v2.2.6 and above are packaged with the official
libusb-win32 signed drivers. (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb-win32)
- Added
Isochronous endpoint support.
- Added
Additional support for asynchronous I/O. See the UsbTransferQueue class and
the Read.Isochronous example.
- Updated
InfWizard to include an embedded libusb-win32 driver resource package.
Previous version of the InfWizard required the user to download driver resource package(s) before it could be used.
InfWizard will continue to support these downloadable driver packages but now comes with a libusb-win32 driver resource package
embedded into InfWizard.exe.
v2.2.5 (04/22/2010) - AddedDataReceivedEnabledChanged event
This event is fired on the DataReceivedEnabled property changes state.
- Updated
The LibUsbDotNet InfWizard has been re-worked and includes many new features.
InfWizard no longer uses the 'Find Drivers' option. Instead, it uses
driver resource packages that contain the drivers/coinstallers, inf/cat file
templates, and all other files that may be required by the installation.
Driver resource packages can be downloaded automatically by InfWizard
or from http://sites.google.com/site/libusbdotnet/driver_resources.
As of v2.2.5 Winusb 1.9 and libusb-win32 0.1.12.2 packages are available.
InfWiard has an install now feature, thanks to Peter Batard and the Libusb-1.0 team.
After a driver package is created, it can be automatically installed.
InfWizard remove device function enhancements. The remove device function can remove usb
devices by the device instance id or all devices matching the hardware id. It now calls
SetupDiUnintallOEMInf as well as SetupDIRemoveDevice.
Detailed logging added. Most of the InfWizard pages have a log status rtf box which indicates
the current progress of an operation. All log status boxes can be saved, copied and cleared via
the context menu.
- UpdatedWinUsbRegistry class
Improved support for composite devices. Added DeviceID and InterfaceID property
- AddedEndpointType parameter to OpenEndpointReader and OpenEndpointWriter methods.
The endpoint type must be specified for linux Libusb-1.0 compatibility. - Added
Benchmark Console application.
Thank Xiaofan (http://mcuee.blogspot.com) for helping debug this application and getting it ready for release. - Fixed
Usb devices runnning benchmark firmware do not work correctly if plugged in while booting under linux.
- Updated
Benchmark firmware for Microchip PIC USB devices updated to MCHPFSUSB Framework v2.6a. Added support for no ping pong buffering benchmark tests.
v2.2.4 (03/13/2010) - FixedBug ID: 2969931
- Linux xbuild issue.
The xbuild utility failed to build the LibUsbDotNet.sln. This was caused
by an invalid resource in the InfWizard application and a casting issue for
function that take a Predicate<> as a parameter.
- FixedBug ID: 2956665
- UsbDeviceFinder fails to find VID and PIDs > 0x7FFF.
USB devices that have VID or PIDs greater than 0x7FFF are not found by the
UsbDeviceFinder class.
- Added
Asynchronous transfer functions to UsbEndpointBase.
For more details see the NewAsyncTransfer()()()() and SubmitAsyncTransfer()()()() functions in the UsbEndpointBase class.
- Added
Low-level .NET MonoLibUsb API for Libusb-1.0.
The low-level MonoLibUsb API (Libusb-1.0) is supported on many platforms including windows via the Libusb-1.0 windows-backend port.
Unlike the LibUsbDotNet API, MonoLibUsb has full support for all Libusb-1.0 functions. - Added
UsbRegistry.ForceSetupApi option.
This option forces LibUsbDotNet to gather extra device information via the windows setup api for devices using drivers that do not support the setupapi.
- Added
UsbDevice.ForceLibUsbWinBack option.
This option forces LibUsbDotNet to use only the Libusb-1.0 windows backend driver.
v2.2.3 (01/30/2010) - Removed
- GetConfiguration call in UsbDevice.Open method.
The UsbDevice.Open()()()() method requests
the usb devices current configuration upon opening. This causes problems in some situations.
- AddedIUsbDevice.ResetDevice()()()() method.
- FixedBug ID: 2937372
- Read Failed:WaitHandle.WaitOne missing member exception.
If .NET 3.5 is not installed, a System.Threading.WaitHandle.WaitOne missing
member exception is thrown. LibUsbDotNet should not require the 3.5
runtime. It should work with 2.0 and greater.
- FixedBug ID: 2935627
- Stack overflow when reading an ep that does not exists.
If an attempt is made to open and transmit to a non-existent endpoint a
stack overflow occurs. Expected behavior is to throw an exception.
- FixedBug ID: 2935456
- UsbDevice.KernelType property not set correcty.
[Windows Only]
If the UsbDevice.KernelType is accessed when no device are connected it
does not update properly when a device is connected.
v2.2.2 (01/19/2010) - FixedBug ID: 2934547
- DeviceNotifier not working.
On Linux like OSes the DeviceNotifier never fires events. On Windows, a DllNotFound exception is thrown.
- FixedBug ID: 2933530
- Composite WinUSB not found.
WinUSB interfaces that are part of a composite device do not appear in the WinUsbRegistry.DeviceList.
v2.2.1 (01/13/2010) - FixedBug ID: 2930836
- [OSX PPC] GetDescriptor request fails.
On big-endian platforms, the descriptor type and index bytes are reversed.
- FixedBug ID: 2927179
- Wrong versioning. LibUsbDotNet 2.2.0 all AssemblyInfo.cs contains [assembly:AssemblyVersion("2.1.0.13")]
- Updated
Benchmark application: Removed all calls to Control.Invoke.
The benchmark application now uses a timer control to periodically update the display instead of "Invoking"
an update everytime data is transferred. This provides a more accurate benchmark reading as well as a
work-a-round for Mono .NET runtimes on platforms that do not properly implement the Control.Invoke method.
- Removed
LINUX compiler option.
The LINUX compiler option is no longer used. LibUsbDotNet (v2.2.1 and above) is fully platform independent.
v2.2.0 (12/29/2009) - Added
Linux support.
LibUsbDotNet supports linux via the linux libusb v1.x driver.
- Updated
UsbDevice.OpenEndpointReader and UsbDevice.OpenEndpointWriter members
to first lookup the endpoint descriptor for the current configuration.
If an attempt is made to open an endpoint on a unconfigured device
(GetConfiguration = 0) an exception is thrown.
If an attempt is made to open a non-existent or invalid endpoint an exception is thrown.
- Added
endpoint descriptor information to UsbEndpointBase class.
A New property, 'EndpointInfo' is available from the UsbEndpointBase class.
- Removed
Depricated UsbGlobals class.
The UsbGlobals class has been rendered obsolete and will be removed in future release.
Update your code you use the UsbDevice class instead.
v2.1.0 (11-02-2009) - FixedBug ID: 2886021

.NET framework crashes.
- FixedBug ID: 2853283
- Infwizard exception thrown on load
The InfWizard throws an exception when loaded.
- Added
support for the genuine libusb-win32 kernel driver.
If the LibUsbDotNet native kernel driver is not detected it falls back to the original libusb-win32 kernel driver.
Using the native driver is recommended.
- Added
static open method to the LibUsbDevice class.
Opens a libUsb device from a user suppiled device filename.
public static bool Open(string deviceFilename, out LibUsbDevice usbDevice) - Added
static open method to the WinUsbDevice class.
Opens a WinUSB device from a user suppiled device path (symbolic link).
public static bool Open(string devicePath, out WinUsbDevice usbDevice) - Removed
DeviceInterfaceGuid property from WinUsbDevice class.
A DeviceInterfaceGuid is not required for a WinUsbDevice.
- Removed
UsbRegistryInfo property from UsbDevice classes.
A UsbRegistry instance is not required for the UsbDevice classes.
- Removed
device and endpoint level locking features.
The device and endpoint level locking features had specfic requirements pertaining to the usb symbolic name that could not always be met.
v2.0.3 (09-03-2009) - FixedBug ID: 2845680
- LibUsbDotNet-libusb-win32 v2.1.12.1 GET_INTERFACE request fails in XP SP3
