Hello, I've begun thinking about how to support multi-slot USB readers and the support is now there. The driver can define a GETCAPABILITY IFD_SLOTS_NUMBER which will cause pcscd to allocate more reader structures and ennumerate the names. But how would you propose this name ennumeration occur ? POSSIBILITY 1: First Reader (2 slot) ASE USB 0 ASE USB 1 Second Reader (2 slot) ASE USB 2 ASE USB 3 Third Reader (1 slot) ASE USB 4 My question is for 1 if either the first or second reader is removed do the second and third's names remain the same ? I don't think the names can change because the applications will store these but at the same time if you pull the first USB reader and the next is 2 and 3 it doesn't make much sense. Also, if you keep the names and you remove the first reader, if I insert another do I start with 0 and 1 or do I go with 4 and 5 ? Or would you like to see it as: POSSIBILITY 2: First Reader (2 slot) ASE USB 1 0 ASE USB 1 1 Second Reader (2 slot) ASE USB 2 0 ASE USB 2 1 Third Reader (1 slot) ASE USB 3-0 Best Regards, Dave David Corcoran Purdue University 1008 Cherry Lane West Lafayette, IN 47906 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 765 - 427 - 5147 http://www.linuxnet.com *************************************************************** Linux Smart Card Developers - M.U.S.C.L.E.
