ANT Forum

Hi all,
I want to develop a ANT Client on linux(ubuntu 12.04) and ,
1. I've got ANT USB Stick2, and could get the usb information.(Device id "0x0fcf, 0x1009")
2. I've got the full sources code of the ANT library package, both for Windows and MacOSX but not for Linux.

What should I do the next?
Where could I got he ANT library package for linux, or how could I got the codes based on the packages(MacOSX and Windows)?

I'm very confused as one newbie.Please help, and thanks a lot.      

Try and search the forum.
If I remember right, there were a few similar requests and the answer was "we do not provide ANT USB stick drivers for linux".      

Correct, there is no library package for Linux.      

for your reference:
Try port ANT-Library of MacOSX gcc to linux(ubuntu 13.04 ARM)

this moment, demo_lib/demo_dll can work as following:

I just quickly wanted to check if it is possible to use ANT+ on Linux as well, but it seems there is no official support. Is there a plan to add ANT+ support for Linux as well?      

Official support is planned but no definite timeline for when it will be released.
