Hi Dave
However, in addition to using boost::asio, I am using the boost::statechart library as the controller (FSM) for a project. I have managed to get the serial port working with the boost::asio library. Now, my problem is that I have an io_service defined and initialized in my statechart FSM.
Ok so far, although I don't see how an io_service defined and initialized in an FSM is a problem.
Is there some way to cast or otherwise use the io_service that I have therein into a serial_port?
I don't see how the casting io_service to serial_port has anything to do with Boost.Statechart? Moreover, if you want to make an object internal to an FSM visible from the outside then it seems you just need to add a get function to your FSM class? I guess I don't understand your question, so can you please be more specific? A small code example is probably best.
