How to get information about the connected device?
-
I'm writing to C ++, I'm using Qt under Windows. I need to get: the name of the model, the manufacturer and the serial number of the device (video camera, photo, quadrocopter, flash drive or SD Card). Can I do this with libusb and if so how? I can not find an example of this information output.

I got:
8086:1e31 (bus 2, device 0)
04a9:1795 (bus 1, device 6) path: 1.5

8087:0024 (bus 3, device 1) path: 1
046d:c31c (bus 3, device 2) path: 1.4How do I get the data that is shown on the image?
-
- the example i've posted retrieves a device descriptor @ line 32
- this device descriptor contains descriptor indexes for retrieval
- call libusb_get_string_descriptor_ascii() with the desired index
- convert the returned data to a QString using
QString::fromLatin1(data, size)
-
On Windows just use a win32 API, called as 'Setup API'. Where you can enumerate all USB devices (even any device by desired interface class UUID) and to get its info. You don't need in libusb and other external stuff.

I do not see a camera or a USB flash drive here. Although they are connected. Some USB ports appear or disappear from the list when I turn them off. But their names are not displayed. Why is this happening?

A sample list, connected devices can be seen? To show the name of the model, the manufacturer and the serial number of the device.
You can got same info as from "device properties" of device manager and so on.
PS: It belongs not only to USB devices...
