Hi All, I'm trying to communicate with a number of HID devices at once, using the Python bindings for libhid(*). I know this has been covered in the list before and I've looked over the discussion here: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/libhid-discuss/2008-January/000336.html
However, I'm still a bit confused over how libhid works. Turning on debugging I notice that HIDInterfaceMatcher objects do indeed find all HID devices on the USB bus, but I can't see any way to get to that list from the SWIG interface. Obviously(?) asking the matcher to open a device twice results in an error, not in two devices being opened, as discussed in the other thread. Is it actually possible to do what I'm trying to do from the Python bindings? Presumably I need to subclass HIDInterfaceMatcher to manipulate the internal list of matched devices, but will this have to be done in the C library and if so where would be best to start looking -- hid_opening.c or linux.c?
