Subclassing is the Python way, but HIDInterfaceMatcher is a C struct wrapped by SWIG, not a full-fledged Python class. > 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? Looks like it's there in the SVN version: http://libhid.alioth.debian.org/doc/hid__opening_8c-source.html#l00109 I almost forgot - someone finally contributed code to do just that. You might be breaking new ground with that, though - I don't know if that code has been tested much in Python. My advice would be to open all of the devices sequentially in an initialization function, and not to spawn off any new threads until after you have opened the devices. (I don't think thread safety was considered there.) -- Charles Lepple _______________________________________________ libhid-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/libhid-discuss
