Hello,
I have added a new test to frontend/tstbackend . When enabled, the
tstfrontend program loops calling sane_get_devices() function and print
detected devices each second, until a given time elapsed. This way you
can plug/unplug/replug scanners and see if they are correctly reported.
For instance:
./tstbackend -l0 -r1 -dgt68xx -g35
loops 35 seconds getting devices from gt68xx backend.
I have used it to check and fix device detection of the gt68xx.
This backend, like quite a number of USB backends built its device list
only in sane_init(), which was wrong, it must be done each time
sane_get_devices() is called. Failure to do so prevent the backend from
correctly handling hotplug/unplug of scanners.
The gt68xx is now fixed regarding this issue.
Regards,
Stef
