IRDA (USB) read/write

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.device_driver.dev (More info?)

Hi all,
what is the simplest way to send/receive some data (for example one number -
integer) from one to another computer using IRDA (USB) driver. DDK's demo
application which send/receive data using IRDA works with Sockets. I would
like to write it without Sockets, etc. but on the lowest level using
commands: createfile, deviceIOcontrol, ...
The problem is where can I find the information how to set up IRDA
connection using deviceIOcontrol (which IOControlCode use), which parameters
I must set, how to send/receive the data (also deviceIOcontrol or
write(read)file) ? Any suggestions are welcome, thanks to everyone.

Best regards,
norti
