1 Introduction
This is a similar tool as HID Descriptor Tool that is avaliable in USB-IF. Not intended to re-create the wheel, my purpose is to quickly create an utility that can parse the following USB HID Report Descriptors:
- descriptors which are binaries
- descriptors for an USB Sensor HUB
2 Usage
What the tool does is simply to parse the input files into items, and translate the data into human readable wordings. It is not a true parser; it doesn't parse items into hierarchical objects.
Usage:
Usage:
% ./rd-parser.py -h usage: rd-parser.py [-h] [-v] file positional arguments: file file path to the report descriptor optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose increase output verbosityTwo types of files are supported:
- binary files

3 Build the Win32 Executable
This would only be needed if you need a win32 executable, to be executed on a Windows without python installed.
Download and install pywin32 from sourceforge. Make sure to download the correct pywin32 package according to the version (and architecture) of python that is installed in your system. Please reference README.txt.
Download and install PyInstaller. For more details, see the PyInstaller manual.
Usage:
FYI, provide my executable that is built on a 32-bit Windows and is able to be executed under both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows.

Usage:
python pyinstaller.py /path/to/rd-parser.pyThe win32 exectuable will be built under .\rd-parser\dist\rd-parser\rd-parser.exe. Please copy the rd-parser.exe along with python27.dll, and you shall able to run it on another Windows without installing python.
