Re: Need to identify a physical USB hub port

Thank you. Where can I find docs and perhaps code snippets on locationID please?

Yes, my bus topology will remain fixed during a session. I'm really only interested in the constancy of physical ID during a session.



I think that the best that you can do is get the locationID of the device in question. This number is persistent across restarts, as long as the bus topology remains the same (which sounds like it will from your description). What you do with this location ID is up to you ;-)

HTH,

As an example, Windows explorer binds a drive letter to a reader whether or not the removable flash is inserted in the reader. And that drive letter persists for the entire session even after the removable flash has been removed. How can I do the same under OSX ... Carbon, please?
