Hi All,
I'm using the c++ wrapper of libftdi (git co of yesterday) to
communicate with a FT2232HL on a Lattice XO2 Eval board
(LCMXO2-7000HE-B-EVN) this board has no programmed in iSerial.
A simple c++ program which just opens and closes the device fails with
"libusb_get_string_descriptor_ascii() failed" this is also true for
the find_all_pp example (find_all, works). This failure originates in
the use of the get_strings() function inside all c++ open() functions.
This function wants all three iManufractuer, iProduct and iSerial to be
present. The C-API allows one to pass NULL to ignore these descriptors.
This is currently not possible with the c++ api. To properly fix this I
suspect an api break is needed. As temporary ugly workaround I use the
appended patch. Are there other ideas to fix this?
Cheerio,
Matthias
