http://javax-usb.org/faq.html General What is javax.usb? What Operating Systems is javax.usb available on? What is a "certified" implementation? Who is responsible for javax.usb? Who can I contact if I have questions or problems? What level of the USB specification is supported? Where can I get the USB specification? Can I use HID devices with javax.usb? Can I use Mass Storage devices (e.g. USB hard drive) with javax.usb? Can I use <insert your protocol> devices with javax.usb? I have a USB device, can you please tell me how to write a javax.usb driver for it? What uses javax.usb? Usage Where are examples of how to use javax.usb? How can I reset my device? Why can't I claim my device's interface(s)? How do I "forceClaim" an interface, and what does that mean? When a device is disconnected, why do I get strange errors before the disconnect event? API Where is the javax.usb API specification? How do I add the API to my Java environment? What is the javax.usb.properties file? I'm getting the error "Properties file javax.usb.properties not found.", where can I get this file? What license does the javax.usb API use? Common Implementation What is the "common implementation"? How do I add the "common implementation" to my Java environment? Is the "common implementation" all I need? What license does the common implementation use? Linux Implementation What is the Linux implementation? How do I add the Linux implementation to my Java environment? Do I have to do any system setup in Linux? I installed the API, common RI, and Linux RPMs, but it doesn't work! Help, it still doesn't work! Does the Linux implementation provide a javax.usb.properties file, and where is it? Is there any tracing or debugging in the Linux implementation? What license does the Linux implementation use? Windows Implementation Is there an implementation for Windows? Test Compliance Kit (TCK) What is the TCK? Who should I send TCK questions to?
