  • v0.6.4 Changes

    May 05, 2018

    ➕ Added:

    • 🆕 New function Context#set_option. It is also available when running libusb < 1.0.22 and calls libusb_set_debug() in this case.
    • Add definition for SUPER_SPEED_PLUS.
    • 🐧 Linux: Use system libusb even when only library but no dev package is installed.
    • ➕ Add Transfer#dev_handle and #timeout
    • 📦 Use system libusb even when no development package is installed. Means "libusb-1.0-0" is enough, no need for "libusb-dev" on Ubuntu.
