Mouse simulating program using male to male using USB cable.

[jack1991]

I'm going to send mouse signals to USB cables to other pc.

In detail

    connect pc1 and pc2 with direct usb cable with no special devices.
    No special software on pc2.
    when I move mouse on pc1, the cursor on pc2 should be moved.

I'm going to develop this kind of program for PC1 in C++.
Is it possible?

Regards.

A direct USB connection between two computers just blows the power supply or a fuse on wither computer. You need a piece of electronics between the computers. USB is a single host to multiple slave system, there can never be two hosts on the same bus.

Thanks for your reply.

What I want to do is

Connect pc2 to pc1 with direct usb cable.
After that, I'm going to send mouse signal from pc1 to pc2.
So when I connect two PCs, pc2 will recognise pc1 as mouse.(No special program on pc2)

Is it possible?
