How can I download HIDAPI.DLL? #3

Closed Zaaphod closed 5 years ago

Zaaphod commented 5 years ago

I'm trying to get python easyhid.py to work under windows and it seems to require HIDAPI.DLL .. but the dll is not included. I have searched everywhere for this and I can't find a place to just download it. I see the hidapi project here https://github.com/signal11/hidapi , but not way to just get the DLL. Do I really have to get visual studio, install it, and learn how it even works, to build this DLL myself? can someone PLEASE help me and just tell me where I can download it? It would be extremely helpful. I have been looking for a simple way to obtain this DLL for days now. Trying to get this DLL to use easyhid is making it anything but easy.

Someone finally pointed me in the right direction. hidapi.dll can be downloaded here: https://github.com/libusb/hidapi/releases It would be great if the download links to dependencies were in the readme.. it would have saved me days of trying to figure this out.
