Reading inputs from an external keyboard

Hello,

I want to read inputs from a button press which comes in as a simulated keyboard input through a converter and then onto a USB port. I want to connect this USB port to the mbed LPC1768 over the D+, D- and GND connectors. I would then like to read the inputs on a terminal application like coolterm. I tried looking into the documentation quite a lot including trying the USBHostKeyboard class but I get an error saying ' Cannot open source input file "USBHostKeyboard.h": No such file or directory' Please help me in making this work.

Thanks!

Did you import the USB host library into your project?

Hi Andy, Thanks a lot! But I get an error on updating the library, it says - 'Unable to update library to revision - USBHost/FATFileSystem. Do you know how to resolve this issue?
