Accessing i2c on windows via i2c-tiny-usb
-
Hi All,
I have made a small Qt program that runs on a bananapi. this is an ARM chip (Allwinner A20), with native I2C pins. I have made the below linux code to talk to i2c: full code
I would like to access i2c also on windows. I don't have an accessable i2c port there, so I'm planning to use the i2c-tiny-usb. How can I access the i2c-tiny-usb on windows in my Qt program?
Kind regards,
Cedric#include <linux/i2c.h>
#include <linux/i2c-dev.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
init():
i2cHandle = open("/dev/i2c-2", O_RDWR); //get adapter string from above routines
opResult = ioctl(i2cHandle, I2C_TENBIT, 0); //device is 7 bit address
read():
opResult = ioctl(i2cHandle, I2C_SLAVE, msg.address);
opResult = ::read(i2cHandle, msg.buffer, msg.length);
write():
opResult = ioctl(i2cHandle, I2C_SLAVE, msg.address);
opResult = ::write(i2cHandle, msg.buffer, msg.length);
close():
close(i2cHandle); -
well the site says
" A windows demo driver and demo application is included to get you started immediately."
So that seems like a good place to start. How ever that sample talks to driver would be the same
for Qt.
