USB on QNX4

Hi,
I see there is a beta usb in the download area for qnx4.
claims to support keyboards, mice, hubs , and printers.

have any of you had luck with this. I would like to be able
to get some USB memory to work, would this be hard? has anyone else
managed to get this going?

I think you need to talk to sales to get your hands on it.

USB memory is not supported.

I managed to get hold of it without talking to a human :slight_smile: i just had to
accept the beta licensing terms from
my myQNX account on www.qnx.com. under Beta products.

USB memory is not supported.

It seems as though it is a DDK that enables you to write
your own Class devices. wouldn’t it be a matter of writing a devu-memory
(possibly adding the correct vendor
and product to usb_devices.h)?

Yes that’s part of it, just need to get to know the DDK and the USB specs.

The tricky part is you also need to support it at file system level. That
means writting either a Fsys driver (most probably need a NDA to get access
to spec) or an IOmanager (QNX4 name for QNX6 resource manager). I don’t
know enough about USB memory device to make a suggestion which is better.
