Title: webbotlib + USB atmega's
Post by: totalis on December 26, 2010, 06:29:40 PM

having recently tried to use the atmega32u2, i have found them to be capable u-controllers. they are easily USB compatible (a requirement for a project)

However i cannot find any nice way of running webbotlib on them (they arent in /sys)

How hard would it be to include support for these u-controllers?

how can i help?

I can easily add them to WebbotLib but it depends on how the USB is handled. If its done as if it was a standard UART then all is well - otherwise it would need special code to be written for it which is difficult as I dont have the part. I can have a quick look at the datasheet but may need you to fathom out how to drive the USB if it requires special code.
