Hi, PyUSB is almost ready for its first beta release. I still need to fix some regressions in Windows 7 and would like to know if someone can perform tests on *BSD and Mac OSX.
PyUSB is not yet feature complete, but keeping it in *alpha* does not reflect its code maturity, so I decided to move it to *beta* stage and continue the development there. As we are going from alpha to beta, I wouldn't like to release it with serious regressions, so I ask everyone who can to test your apps with the latest code. We now have some support for openusb and isochronous transfer in libusb(x) 1.0. Before stable release, there still some stuff to be implemented: 1 - openusb: we have a basic working openusb backend, but I am experiencing hangs on certain control transfers. But as openusb hasn't been so popular, this is not a showstopper, I can postpone openusb backend to a 1.0.1 version, no problem. 2 - legacy module: I still need to carry more tests with the legacy module and write unit tests for them. There is also a buffer treatment implementation that is pending. 3 - isochronous transfers for libusb-win32: I intend to implement this before 1.0 release, although depending how much time this release will take, I can postpone it to after stable version. -- Best Regards, Wander Lairson Costa ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
