Hi

Does anyone know of any good tutorials on programming the USB port? In particular a web cam attached to the USB port.

Books or online tutorials would be great.

Thanks
 
Hello,

You can found usb web-cam example in the DDK of microsoft avaible on they website for download. Unfortunately the msdn documentation upon ddk have been completely removed from online msdn because microsoft wants you to buy they book in ddk at microsoft press. This is absolutely unfair...

They are also source code examples for usb on intel web site, but beware the code quality is... awfull ! If found one example where the programmer define a structure with typedef, then don't use the type, pass a UCHAR pointer when he need to pass a pointer to the structure and wrote horrible ++ and -- operations for navigating into the structure instead of using the structure definition !

I'm myself needing example on USB with microsoft visual C++ but I'm unable to find good stuff.

Best regards,

David Burg.
