Serial Port Programming in C or C++

Serial Port Programming in C or C++

Post by Kevin D. Gustavs » Thu, 20 Mar 1997 04:00:00



I am writing a program that uses the serial port to exchange information
with an Newton Messagepad.  I would like to avoid reinventing the wheel
where possible.

Has anyone written a C or C++ class library for opening a serial port and
setting options with a fairly high level interface.  Especially valuable to
me would be a class that is capable of handling MNP in software, but I have
a way of using a straight serial connection if possible.

Does anyone have code that they are willing to share?  My code isn't under
any licensing yet, so I am flexible with that.

Thanks.

1. Parallel Port programming question, was "Serial Port Programming"

All right, it was a unanaimous response to use the parallel port instead of
the serial port to twiddle pins on a IO port.  Anyone have a quick snipit
of code or direction to go.  I have the IOport programming howto which shows
how to set up port to be talked to, but does not explain how to exactly
talk to the port itself.  Any help would be appreciated.
