How to create a virtual USB simulator?

We are looking for a virtual simulator of links to USB; this program or service must associate a virtual COM port with an application that accepts only USB as a data transfer channel.

The virtual COM port is VSPE from Eterlogic .

The goal is to make a serial data connection between this virtual port and an application that is waiting for data from a USB drive. Instead of a stick (recognized as HID), the program should receive serial data from a virtual COM port ( RS-232 ), presented as a virtual USB connection.

What does it mean "Accepts only USB as a data transmission channel"?

HID is a standard class of devices. It contains some standardized "usage tables" (for example, mouse, keyboard, monitor).

Most operating systems know how to handle HIDs and a number of usage tables. Connecting such a device will cause the OS to export the corresponding device (keyboard).

Since you can register in the HID in the user space in Windows (for the new implementation of the class driver, you must create a full driver). Many manufacturers will go back HID back to create their own protocols.
