Hi Wisecracker,
The thing is as follows:
My program starts and checks where the devices have been mapped.
I know the devices have been plugged but what I don't know is what name do they get.
Using the libusb library I can confirm they are plugged but I still don't know whether they are /dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/ttyUSB1 or ...
It must be possible to retrieve what is the mount point from C++.
Thanks again,
Carles.
