I've been very new to driver development and recently read about communicating with USB peripherals using LibUsbDotNet.
Currently I'm developing a small library for interacting with the OBD interface built into vehicles. The serial connection works great but since I've seen many USB connectors I wanted to let people use their USB connectors with this library.
The introduction page of LibUsbDotNet says:
Before LibUsbDotNet can access a usb device on a Windows operating system the device must be installed with either WinUSB or libusb-win32 usb drivers. Optionally, libusb-win32 has the unique ability to operate as a filter service. When the filter service mode is enabled, libusb-win32 will allow access to every usb device on the system without the need for driver setup/installation packages.
Does that mean that I'll need to create own driver packages for every single USB to OBD connector and deploy it with the library? Is there really the need for a driver? I only want to read from the USB port and transfer data to it. So that the interface on the other end may receive my messages and respond to me - just as the COM port.
