Colin, thank your son for providing the impetus to re-explore the Windows
port.
Windows doesn't support the filesystem (no fuse) nor the W1 kernel bus
master of course. I also have my doubts about the DS2482-X00 i2c bus
masters, but I haven't tested that.
I spent sometime time coaxing the windows binary and installer, it's now on
Sourceforge. https://sourceforge.net/projects/owfs/
If your son wants to test it out and offer any suggestions of fixes, I'd be
pleased. This was generated on XP-32bit (in a virtual machine), so I can't
speak to Win7.
USB has some issues:
1. You will be directed to the libusb-win32 site to download and install
the windows libusb driver (version 0.12.1)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb-win32/files/libusb-win32-releases/0.1.12.2/libusb-win32-filter-bin-0.1.12.2.exe/download
2. Even so, you need the ds9490.inf file found at C:\Program
Files\OWFS\drivers for the USB hardware install wizard.
3. Windows Firewall may ask you about owserver
------------
Of course, this is to get owserver or owhttpd to run on Windows. You can
always access owhttpd running on Linux or Mac from Windows with no effort.
There is also a Visual Basic access module which could be a nice
development platform for using 1wire under Windows.
