Acess chips with multiple controllers (FT2232D for example) #1

Closed paxospaxos closed 12 years ago

paxospaxos commented 12 years ago

Using Device::FTDI, I can't seem to figure out how to specify which controller I would like to communicate with on a dual controller chip such as the FT2232D. Am I missing something simple?

I suspect that you should use ftdi_set_interface function. I didn't add it when implemented module, as I didn't need it. I will add function, but I won't be able to test it, as I don't have access to any FDTI chips at the moment.

Please let me know if it worked for you or not

added this:

  FTDI.pm
177c177,178
<     return _set_interface(shift->{_ctx});
---
>     my ( $self, $interface ) = @_;
>     return _set_interface(shift->{_ctx}, $interface);

will keep testing...

With the added patch above, the new ftdi_set_interface function has been successfully tested with the FT2232D chipset. Works great! Thanks!
