Re: [boost] How to access COM ports

How to access COM port using BOOST library. I want to access COM3 port using boost.

I tried this boost::asio::ip::tcp::resolver::query query("localhost", "COM3");

COM ports aren't sockets. There's nothing in boost to support COM/serial ports yet. On windows you use CreateFile with ReadFile/WriteFile and on *nix you use the POSIX termios.h if I remember correctly. There are some portable libs around but not very good. Good luck. Philippe**
