However, I also maintain a closed-source version of PyFTDI (cftdi.py) that exposes the same API as PyFtdi but relies on libftdi rather than pyusb. This latter module offers the same level of features of the libftdi Python wrapper. > And take note there is this libftdi-1.0 which should have better > performance than libftdi-0.18 because of the use of libusb-1.0 > async API. > gain can be quite significant. libftdi-1.0 is API compatible > with libftdi-0.18 so you can try your pyftdi/libftdi/libusb without > any changes. > http://developer.intra2net.com/git/?p=libftdi-1.0 I'm not really encline to use libftdi anymore. It has been a very good source of information to understand the FTDI internals. The main reason is that I want to avoid just-another-dependency-that-needs-to-be-built. As our base code needs to run on Mac OS X, different flavours of Linux (32 + 64 bits + buildroot), (Windows *), building and managing libftdi (+ wrapper) has been a source of recurring issues. Moreover, FTDI 2232/4232 H were not supported at full speed last time I checked. Other issues such as EEPROM management and memory allocation has been a source of troubles, etc. PyFtdi is -for our projects- much easier to manage across platforms. Cheers, Manu (*) I've never been able to make libusb work on this one, but Windows is not a primary goal. Would be nice though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Achieve unprecedented app performance and reliability What every C/C++ and Fortran developer should know.
