WinUSB bugs?

[lcpoon]

I send a command to the uC 3 times and used SysNucleus USBTrace to monitor the USB activities. The uC consistently returns "Rev: A (16th April 2012)".

Using WinUSB VB codes, I found out that the return message contains rubbish data concatenated with the desired data. The problem is that the rubbish data keeps changing. How to solve this?

The problem only occurs in Window 7. I have the program running in Windows XP and no problem at all (no rubbish data concatenated with the desired data).

A hardware protocol analyzer will show what is happening on the bus. If you don't have an analyzer, use a monitor program, watch variables, etc., or whatever debugging tools you have to find out what the device is sending.

Actually I am using USB Trace to log all the USB events as attached. The device is sending "Rev: A (16th April 2012). It is the VB program that gives incorrect output.

In the call to

deleg.EndInvoke(receivedDataBuffer, bytesRead, success, ar)

bytesRead is the number of bytes read. Anything after that is whatever was in the application's buffer.

It works. I make use of bytesRead information to get rid of unwanted data. Thanks.

Glad you got it working. I'll try to remember to fix that on the next update.
