I am required to access the USB port on an HP iPAQ Pocket PC model
H5555 to read and write to a linux machine. I have Visual Studio.net
Profressional version 2003. The data sent and recieved could be no
more then strings (or a block of bytes).
On the linux side I am assuming its as simple as opening device
/dev/usb0 and reading/writing to the device. But how is it done on
iPAQ side? So far what I know is it is done by calling CreateFile.
But it does not say what the device name is for the USB port on the
iPAQ.
Can CreateFile open the USB port and allow me to send and recieve
blocks of bytes to a linux machine? If not how can the USB port on
iPAQ be accessed using C#?
Thank you,
Durwin
