dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _hid_reset_HIDInterface

I'm trying to follow the test here:

http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/libhid/trunk/test/test_libhid.c?revision=352&view=markup

but hit an error with hid_new_HIDInterface

require 'libhid-ruby'
hid = LibHID::Native::hid_new_HIDInterface

Output:

dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _hid_reset_HIDInterface

I'm gonna need the wayback machine to re-figure out how all of this worked. I built and used it in a very limited context (a weather station device), but I'd be happy to help you problem solve.

Hey Zachary,

The background is that I'm trying to get a Playstation 1 controller connected to a USB adapter feeding data to a ruby program. Right now I'm several yaks deep attempting to interface with libusb directly in a c extention :) Any insights you might have would be useful.

Just got back from an extended vacation in Europe, sorry. Think this would be similar with a playstation 2 controller? That's all I got.

I'd guess the PS2 controller would be similar. I ended up hacking something together with an xbox controller and libusbx:

Manned up with some C eh? Nice.
