usb to serial using wmi
Hello, I am new to these forums, I thought it would be best to sign up to a forum as I am learning c++.
However I do have a problem I am working on and can not seem to work it out. What I want to do it enumerate serial ports and find out which one is available and go from there. Currently I have just got a for loop and goes through testing com ports and then finds the correct one.
I have now decided to go down the route of using WMI and have modified the example on msdn website to take "SELECT * FROM Win32_SerialPort" Works great shows all com ports apart from one.
The one I need is a USB to Serial connection which it some how doesn't find. I hope some one can point me in the right direction.
Thank you in advance.
