Mac Enumerator doesn't always collect correct information #27

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I'm running Mac 10.6.2 and trying to enumerate serial devices on the system
with the enumerator example using the latest code from the site.

Running it I see the list of devices on my system: found_devices.txt

The friendly name is missing for the two bluetooth devices on the system.
But when I go to the System Profiler and look at all my network devices,
these two show up with names. The highlighted device is the one detected
correctly in serial_devices.png.

The OS X serial port support has been a little strange across different 
versions of the OS (10.4 to 10.5 especially) 
so I've put together something that works well at least for the cases I've come 
across.  I think some more digging 
into the IOKit framework would be in order to resolve this...not sure if I'll 
be getting to this soon, or if this will 
hold up a beta release, but any ideas would be appreciated.
