Anything ISO, be it string or int, is fine by me. I have no preference either way, and from what I gather string will be easier for app developers, so I'm fine with const char* > 2) We add a "const char *(*get_default_lang)(struct libusb_context *ctx);" > member to struct usbi_os_backend > > 3) When the lang param is NULL, then the os_backend get_default_lang op gets > called.

Being smart about localization is hard and time consuming. For 20 messages, I'd rather avoid going there, or at least not in first instance. How about we first provide the one call, see how it's being used, and then decide if we need to add some more? > Sounds good to me, I say go for it! I'll do so after the 1.0.13 release. Since this is issue #14, I have now added a comment and set its target for 1.0.14. See https://github.com/libusbx/libusbx/issues/14 Also (mostly because, I still want to be able to check the mailing list while at work) I have now added libusbx-devel to nabble. See: http://libusbx.1081486.n5.nabble.com/ I requested libusbx-devel to be duplicated on marc.info, but it doesn't seem to have occurred yet.
