How to transmit a file by source-code to USB drive

Hi guys,

I want to find a simple and quick way to permit my application to bring a file located in my file system and write it into an external USB device. I have to use Bulk Transfer Only mode that means to use stream of characters only. I looked through the LibUsb library using it in my IDE I can transmit a string.

To transfer a whole file I suppose I've to dodge the file system building a char sequence that permits to recognise a file in the file system and to put it into the usb device.

Suggestions? :Pengy: Cheers..

Note I'm working with Ubuntu 10.04

Solved!

It works with system("/bin/cp -p /tmp/footbar /mnt/footbar")
