Rust FFI bindings to the [FTDI D3XX drivers]. THIS REPOSITORY IS STILL EXPERIMENTAL AND NON-FUNCTIONAL.
This crate is just the C bindings. There is a separate crate, [libftd3xx], which provides safe wrappers around the unsafe C bindings.
Simply add this crate as a dependency in your Cargo.toml.
The static library is distributed in this crate with permission from FTDI.
The default feature set will use dynamic linking.
toml
[dependencies]
libftd3xx-ffi = "~0.0.1"
The default feature set will use pre-generated bindings. This is only available for Windows x8664 and Linux x8664 platforms.
The bindings can also be generated during compilation using the [bindgen]
feature flag.
toml
[dependencies]
libftd3xx-ffi = { version = "~0.0.1", features = ["bindgen"] }
Bindgen has additional dependencies that must be installed in order to compile successfully, see the [bindgen requirements] page for more details.
Static linking the FTD3XX library into this crate can be done by using
the static feature flag.
toml
[dependencies]
libftd3xx-ffi = { version = "~0.0.1", features = ["static"] }
Static linking may be preferred, however there may be license
incompatibilities (static linking with GPL code).
If in doubt, check the FTDI [driver license terms].

FTDI provides the D3XX driver as a compiled library and a header file.
These files can be found within the vendor directory.
The code within the vendor directory is licensed by FTDI.
Please see the [driver license terms] page for their license.
All code outside of the vendor directory is MIT licensed.
Note: This crate is not affiliated with FTDI. You will need to contact the vendor for any support requests with the underlying library because it is closed source.
