SerialPort

[stepan89]

Hi,

Can anyone help me how to read data from a serial port (COM1, COM2...)? Or
recommend literature/links where I could find more information about this.

Thank you!

I read from some posting in this forum, in Unix/Linux all devices are "files". So to read from COM ports you just open and treat it like a "file". The location of most devices are in /dev folder. Take a look inside and you will set lotsa "devices". COM port, PARELLEL port, USB port etc etc.

This is dependent on the Lib you're using. Have you picked one yet? What OS are you using? Do you plan on releasing this to anyone?
