Due to a error in USB descriptor. Should be fixed by catching the exception, and maybe setting productname to null

On line 285 of WindowsUsbDeviceRegistry :

device.setProductString(descriptorSegment, (index) -> getStringDescriptor(hubHandle, usbPortNum, index));

Thanks for reporting this. I agree that it should be handled without an exception.

Do you happen to know what device this is? Is it a USB device you have plugged in, or rather an internal device like a built-in camera or the USB controller/hub on the motherboard?

Typically a oem dongle for ir : https://www.amazon.fr/Zerone-t%C3%A9l%C3%A9commande-Intelligente-Universelle-Anti-poussi%C3%A8re/dp/B07DBYZDSL Tiqiaa Tview

Connected directly to a USB A or C on PC.

I've made a change that will catch and ignore the exception (and output an info). It will fix the problem if the device has a slightly broken device descriptor. But if the problem is more severe, it won't get much further with this device.

[janicaud]

Yep totally agree !

Works on my side 👍

[janicaud]

On my side, everything is ok ! just waiting for the next release ! thank you

[janicaud]

Could you release next version to include the improvement ?

[manuelbl]

I plan to do it today. Note that it might take several hours until it appears on Maven Central.

It's now available on Maven Central.
