Single source file building

[toxieainc]

Hi!

https://github.com/libusb/hidapi/blob/master/BUILD.md#embedding-hidapi-directly-into-your-source-tree mentions that including hidapi into a repo for compiling should work via copying a single file /hid.c .
I tried for windows, but from what i experienced, i needed to add all .h and .c files from the windows folder.
Am i missing something or is this documentation simply outdated?

Thanks!

Unfortunately you've misread the documentation. In fact:

1. you need to include a single source file into your project's build system
2. NOTE: the above doesn't guarantee that having a copy of /hid.c and hidapi/hidapi.h is enough to build HIDAPI. The only guarantee that /hid.c includes all necessary sources to compile it as a single file.
