USB Devices Library

This library provides functionalities to list USB devices on Windows and handle events for device changes. It is based on C++ code and utilizes Windows IOCTL, setupapi.dll, kernel32.dll, and fmifs.dll.

Features

• List all connected USB devices
• Monitor USB device connection and disconnection events
• Filter USB devices by VID, PID, and Service

Requirements

• .Net Core 8.0
• Windows Desktop

Supported Interfaces

• Disk Drive
• Disk Partition
• Logical Disk

Event Types

• Connected
• Disconnected

Installation

To install this library, clone the repository and build the solution using Visual Studio.

git clone https://github.com/bakhshipoor/USBDevices.git
cd USBDevices

Usage

1. Create a new instance of the USBDevicesList class:

public USBDevicesList USBDevicesCollection { get; set; }

USBDevicesCollection = new USBDevicesList();

2. Enable or disable connection and disconnection events as needed:

USBDevicesCollection.ConnectedEventStatus = false;
USBDevicesCollection.DisconnectedEventStatus = true;

3. Enable device filtering and set filters:

USBDevicesCollection.EnableFilterDevice();
USBDevicesCollection.FilterDeviceStatus = true;
USBDevicesCollection.SetDeviceToFilter("xxxx", "yyyy", "Service Name");

4. Add event handlers for initial collection completion and device changes:

USBDevicesCollection.InitialCollectionsComplete += USBDevicesCollections_InitialCollectionsComplete;
USBDevicesCollection.DeviceChanged += USBDevicesCollections_DeviceChanged;

5. Start monitoring USB devices:

USBDevicesCollection.Start();

6. Access the list of USB devices:

ObservableCollection<USBDevice> devices = USBDevicesCollection.USBDevices;

Examples

This library includes two example projects:

1. USBDevicesDemo: A simple WPF application to view properties of connected USB devices.
2. CopyFilesToFlash: A WPF MVVM application that automatically copies files to a USB flash drive.
