<i>&gt; Hi !</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; I am currenlty trying to write a new sane-backend for</i><br>
<i>&gt; the AVISION AV630CS scanner.</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; First I will try to implement a very very basic version, which</i><br>
<i>&gt; only scans something. No gimmicks, no extras -- so that I can</i><br>
<i>&gt; learn how sane works.</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; The difficult I have is to decide what functions are really needed i.e.</i><br>
<i>&gt; called -- for example -- by xscanimage.</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; Can one offer her/his help?</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; Thank you very much in advance,</i><br>
<i>&gt; Meino</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>

Well the best advise I can give is what I did to implement the Apple<br>
Scanner backend.<br>
<p>
Find a "good" backend which has many things in common with your scanner<br>
and start coding from there. Now the definition of "good" may of course<br>
vary, but basically means: readable by you, easy to cut and paste<br>
from-&gt;to your backend.<br>
<p>
If you want to start from scratch then I suggest you should implement<br>
all the functions SANE needs as stubs (empty functions - non<br>
functionality) with only Debugging messages inside to allow you to watch<br>
the calling sequence flow.<br>
<p>
