using the default interface



Hi All,

Struggling with a problem of a device that locks up when a write or read is performed to any pipe from the Mac.

I am using the user space client interfaces. Basically, the steps taken are:
1. Open the device.
2. Set configuration.
3. Obtain interface interator.
4. Obtain first interface that matches.
5. Open the interface.


At this point, the number of endpoints for the interface is correct and the device responds to control requests.

If I write to an endpoint, or read from a pipe, the device disappears from the bus. Does not respond to control requests at all.

The device is based on a Cypress FX2 chipset and seems to work fine with its Windows driver. Looking at the transfers on the Windows machine, it seems that the Windows driver never selects an interface. There is only one for the configuration, so it just selects the configuration and starts the using the pipes. No SetInterface is performed.

It seems like this might be one difference with the Mac, particularly if USBInterfaceOpen always sends a SetInterface. And assuming that there is some bug in the device that does not respond properly to setting the interface.

This brings me to several specific questions regarding the usb code on the Mac.

1. Does opening the default interface cause a SetInterface to be sent?
2. Is there a way to obtain pipes on the default interface without having a SetInterface sent?


Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated.

Peter
