Lufa is copyright protected code and there need to be another source to copy the code.
from their website: "LUFA is free to use - even for commerical purposes, subject to the MIT license restrictions (see project documentation)"
the license itself is here: https://github.com/abcminiuser/lufa/blob/master/LUFA/License.txt

I'm no lawyer, but I don't think ch55xduino would be considered commercial. The commercial license adds the following features, none of which seem necessary for this project:
1. The right to use LUFA without attribution
2. Three free hours of consultation
3. Priority for support requests
@prosper00 thanks for sharing. Seems reasonable. I'll fix the upload tool problem on my machine, before doing this job which take a lot of firmware write to test.
Most example converted.
Great work indeed!
In the examples the USB descriptors are mere arrays of bytes(
uint8t[]
). Most of the bytes are just magic numbers often with a comment explaining the meaning, others with no explanation at all. Obviously such code is not easily understandable by a novice, let alone modify it.I propose to adopt definitions from the LUFA library.
Converting all the examples would probably be overkill, but I think that starting with just one should be doable. I could collaborate on this. We might either convert one of the examples or add something new. I would be particularly interested in the possibility of supporting multiple CDCs, or mass storage + CDC
