C windows api

So im trying to send some bytes trough an usb port in C. i'm using some
library (http://www.signal11.us/oss/hidapi/) which does most of
the work. At least it should be. When i put the c file for windows in
my project, it gives some errors under "SetupDiGetClassDevsA"
and more from "setupapi". Apparently i need to link this DLL with my project.

I'm using MinGW and code in Eclipse (pls no h8). Note that ive never
done PC C before (only some GLSL and SDCC).

This image is quite appropriate of how im feeling right now.

The Windows API is indeed not quite the best place to start if you want to do C.

I assume you mean TI-Nspire or Casio C since this is in the calculator forums, right? Just making sure in case there is any confusion from people not checking the sub-forum and to make sure this is in the right sub-forum.

A misclick :/

Yeah it was there at first. I wasn't sure if I should move it at first because I'm unfamiliar with C and I wasn't sure if you wanted to create an Ndless program.

No problem, though. Stuff like that happens
