None, you have to use libusb directly.

A possible other solution could be KDE's Solid framework.

Hi,
In this libusb file descriptor give information about vendor id but I need USB name. -
@qt_ankit_developer I don't know. This now has nothing to do with Qt. Search on the Internet. Something I found: https://sourceforge.net/p/libusb/mailman/message/34503180/

Are you by chance talking about flash memory drives and want to get their mountpoint?
Then https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qstorageinfo.html might be of help.

Qt has to stay free or it will die.

Hi,
I am also trying to include QStorage class by this class is integrated in qt after qt 5.4 but my qt version is qt 5.3.2 thats why i am not able to include this class in my qt project.
suggest me another method to find out usb flash name.
thanks . -
why not just update to Qt5.4 then.
It should just work since its such a minor jump in version. -

Hi,
if u know that command which directly upgrade 5.3.2 to 5.4 .share with me.
i also want to upgrade my qt -
Hi
Well it's so old that the maintenance tool does not have it.In any case, its not really upgrading. Its either replace 5.3.2 or
concurrent 5.4 installed.
You can download installer from
https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.4/5.4.2/Make sure to backup your Debian
so its easy to go back if something
should go broke.
