Hi,
I am new to USB programming and need advice on which path to follow, writing a USB - enabled application. What API's if any are available for user-space USB programming? e.g. I want to incorporate code in an app I am writing to control a USB PAN-TILT servo for a web cam.
My thanks in advance.

Hello,
check out libusb, I successfully used it in one of my C projects
http://libusb.sourceforge.net/doc/

If your device is a HID and you have HIDdev RAW support in your kernel you could use the RAW devicefile directly.
See http://sourceforge.net/projects/av-usbradio/ for an example how to do this

OK thanks for the tips, looks like libusb is the way to go. The device is a Phidget servo controller but for various reasons I prefer to avoid libphidget21 even though it did work for me.
