Before answering, please read all of this so you don't miss any details.
I have been looking on the internet for days, and trying to look through the javadocs, but I cannot find the answer anywhere.
How can I get connected devices through USB by using the java API. I do not want to use any libraries as they aren't reliable enough for the purpose I am using it for.
How do USB java libraries do it, what Java API does it use to connect to USB devices?
I know it may be complicated to actually work with it, but it will still be very useful.
I did seen the use of File.getRoots(), but it just gives storage, like C:/, H:/, etc. I want to be able to communicate with any USB device, like mouses, keyboards, custom hardware, etc.
Also include examples of code as well. It helps a lot in understanding it better. Make sure to also get to the point, it helps by saving time.
Update: I still have no clue on how to start.
Update 2: I found something with javax.usb, is it part of the java api, when I do say java api, I mean stuff that is already with java and where you don't need to download anything but the JRE. I am not sure as if it was, I would think someone would of mentioned something about it here. Going to try to find more into it. I can't find anything on the official java-14 docs, so guessing not.
Update 3: Haven't found an answer yet. Everything is redirecting to usb4java, which has not been updated in a couple years, 3 years in fact. Which is actually one of the main reasons I don't want to use any external library as it might get abandoned and will cause some issues with my code in the future. Hopefully someone can help soon, I desperately need an answer and the internet is no help and everything seems to redirect to libraries, which again, I don't want.
Update 4: Still on the hunt for an answer, still haven't found anything useful.
Update 5: I am seeing that I have tons of uses to do this, but don't know how to do it from scratch.
Update 6: Still on the hunt for an answer. I have been looking hard but found nothing. Looking through the USB4JAVA library code has been proven to not help much. But, I am going to keep looking, hopefully I find something soon. Found something though, it's libusb, a C program that USB4JAVA uses. Even though I won't use Java libraries, I might just use C libraries for Java, if that makes sense.
