No activity with latest code

[madhunm]

Hello,

Using Arduino 1.8.3 IDE, the latest version of your repo and the 1.3.0 version of the USB host shield library, even though the code compiles fine, there is no activity on the MFD of the joystick.

Thanks

I have the same issue.

@xythobuz anything you need us to do?

Hey guys, sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. Currently I sadly don't really have much time to look into this (or even get the hardware back up so I could test it)...

There were some changes with the USB library I mentioned in the Readme:

This software has been written for the USB Host Shield library 2.0, Version 1.2.1. There have been some changes with the library for version 1.3.0 renaming symbols used by this project. I've made the required changes, but these are untested! If you have any problems, I'd suggest using an older version of the library and the code in this repository.

So, install v1.2.1 of the library and use commit c8f3d02 from this repository and you have the known tested state I've used the project with.

Of course, I could only test it with the Saitek X52 that I have here, not the Pro version. So if you want to use the Pro version, some additional debugging may be required...

And for why it's not working with the latest version: my guess would be something changed in the USB library requiring some differing initialization calls or something like this.

@xythobuz in your latest release, you have mentioned that the library is compatible with USB Host Shield library 2.0, Version 1.3. hence the issue ticket.

I just did the minimal changes required to get it to compile again, but I never actually ran the code with V1.3...
