Re: USBNotSent2Err and how to recover?



The interesting part of the problem I'm seeing is that it looks like, but I
haven't been able to verify/disprove yet, that not all of my completion
routine calls are being called when I get the USBNotSent2Err error.

Could this be possible?  Without all of the completion routines being
called, I wouldn't have all of the reads queued that I was expecting, and
that would certainly go a long way towards explaining the problem that I'm
seeing.

Thanks,
Mark
