Help needed with bitfogavs USB HID.

Post by brad » Thu Nov 29, 2012 9:43 am

Hi everyone, I have been experimenting with bitfogavs USB HID software but have been having trouble compiling the swordfish code (bitfogav, this ones for you)

I have downloaded and copied the latest USB HID files from the swordfish site to my swordfish library. I opened up your HID ver 2 code and clicked compile. This is what came up:

Any idea's as to what's going on here?

Im not sure if your question has already been answered at Digital-DIY but I would say its because the latest USB HID files on the Swordfish website are something that Jerry (jmessina at digital-diy) has put together and updated and the usual USB locations/names have been changed. I would suspect that the new USB files are conflicting with what should be the old USB version?.

My USB board and app was designed with only the original USB Swordfish files (versions 1.1) and not the updated USB files which are found here SF USB Version 1.4 :)

I have just tested my app and the SF code for version 2, I have not linked the new USB files into Swordfish so I am still using the old 1.1 version and I did get a compile failure but that was because I have a missing included file "iHIDDesc.bas" I have just noticed that it is not included on the Digital DIY post, sorry thats my mistake.

Here is a working app and my usb board version 2: (note if you want to compile it with swordfish then I would remove the new USB files?)

Thanks bitfogav - it was the new include files!

I don't know why I didn't think of that when I was wracking my brain for hours yesterday trying to figure it out...

I can now (once again) look forward to some awesome USB communications!
