SerialConduit: simple access to serial ports (aka COM-ports)

Reported by:	elite01	Assigned to:	kris
Priority:	normal	Milestone:	0.99.8
Component:	IO	Version:
Keywords:		Cc:	larsivi

Description

Enables applications to use a serial port (aka COM-port, ttyS). Usage is similar to that of FileConduit?:

auto serPort = new SerialPort("ttyS0");
serPort.speed = 38400;
serPort.write("Hello world!");
serPort.close();

Fixed one or two bugs and added static char[][] ports to get a list of all ports, but that's a bit broken, I have to admit. Some testing on anything else than Linux (especially Windows) would be welcome, as well as a Windows implementation of ports.

Ok, did some basic testing on WinXP, and stuff works fine. Including {{{char[][] ports}} - what a pain. But there isn't really a cleaner way on either platform.

nice work, elite01 ... not sure where to locate this, though. What do you think, larsivi?

milestone changed from 1.0 to 0.99.8.

added tango.io.device as a placeholder for this class and others ... now we just need to get the code adjusted a little, and commit it.

please change the module name to SerialConduit?
please convert all tabs to spaces
please remove the dependency on Regex (it's too heavyweight to be imported here)

That should do it, I think? What say you, larsivi?

08/11/08 03:35:10 changed by larsivi

I would like to see the implementation without Regex, but I don't think removing it should cause too much trouble.

Also, on line 69, there is some unnecessary allocation in a loop. Make p a buffer outside the loop, preferably on the stack if you know the max size, and dup the content for those cases where the string constitutes a valid handle. Please look into it, if there are other similar cases.
