Hello everyone,I want to make a simple device, which is just a button (or possibly several ones), and i want to be able to get the state of these buttons (down-up) in my C++ application, problem is, i have never done such thing before (or lets say, i have never tried to use hardware with my apps)So i suppose it should be something like this: the device should have a usb cable, and i need to write a driver for it, and the driver sends info to my applicationmy questions are:1- how to create the driver?2- after creation, how do the driver communicate with my application?I' be really thankful if someone coul point me in the right direction, as i dont even know where to startusing windows 7 32-bitthe only language i know is C++, so i hope i dont need to learn another in order to do thisregards-Hassan

Sorry for double posting,

Do anyone know a good book that explains everything a developer need to know about USB from scratch? i found a book called "USB Complete The Developer's Guide, Fourth Edition", but unfortunately it does not have C++ code, i want something like this but with C++ code examples

Thanks
