Re: [python-win32] USB CDC-class support with win32file, exception processing issues

I'm afraid I don't have many insights. Using overlapped IO may solve your problem of not knowing if an error occurred or not, but I don't think it will solve your general problem. One thing that might be worth looking at are "device notifications", which may be able to inform you of the removal -

[python-win32] USB CDC-class support with win32file, exception processing issues

When USB communication device class devices are installed in Windows they appear as COMxxx ports, just like legacy serial ports. They are different in that many RS-232 device parameters don't apply (such as baud rate, handshaking, etc). Also, since they are USB devices they may be suspended while r
