Detailed Description

Version:

1.0.0

Author:

Stefan Sander

A cross-platform serial port class. This class encapsulates a serial port on both POSIX and Windows systems. The user will be notified of errors and possible portability conflicts at run-time by default - this behavior can be turned off by defining _TTY_NOWARN_ (to turn off all warnings) or _TTY_NOWARN_PORT_ (to turn off portability warnings) in the project.

Note:

On Windows NT/2000/XP this class uses Win32 serial port functions by default. The user may select POSIX behavior under NT, 2000, or XP ONLY by defining _TTY_POSIX_ in the project. I can make no guarantees as to the quality of POSIX support under NT/2000 however.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QextSerialPort::QextSerialPort

(

)

Default constructor. Note that the naming convention used by a QextSerialPort constructed with this constructor will be determined by defined constants, or lack thereof - the default behavior is the same as _TTY_LINUX_. Possible naming conventions and their associated constants are:

Constant         Used By         Naming Convention
----------       -------------   ------------------------
_TTY_WIN_        Windows         COM1, COM2
_TTY_IRIX_       SGI/IRIX        /dev/ttyf1, /dev/ttyf2
_TTY_HPUX_       HP-UX           /dev/tty1p0, /dev/tty2p0
_TTY_SUN_        SunOS/Solaris   /dev/ttya, /dev/ttyb
_TTY_DIGITAL_    Digital UNIX    /dev/tty01, /dev/tty02
_TTY_FREEBSD_    FreeBSD         /dev/ttyd0, /dev/ttyd1
_TTY_LINUX_      Linux           /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1
<none>           Linux           /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1

The object will be associated with the first port in the system, e.g. COM1 on Windows systems. See the other constructors if you need to use a port other than the first.

 : QextBaseType()
{}

QextSerialPort::QextSerialPort

(

const QString &

name

)

Constructs a serial port attached to the port specified by name. name is the name of the device, which is windowsystem-specific, e.g."COM1" or "/dev/ttyS0".

 : QextBaseType(name)
{}

QextSerialPort::QextSerialPort

(

PortSettings const &

settings

)

Constructs a port with default name and settings specified by the settings parameter.

 : QextBaseType(settings)
{}

QextSerialPort::QextSerialPort	(	const QString &	name,
		PortSettings const &	settings
	)

Constructs a port with the name and settings specified.

 : QextBaseType(name, settings)
{}

QextSerialPort::QextSerialPort

(

const QextSerialPort &

s

)

Copy constructor.

 : QextBaseType(s)
{}

QextSerialPort::~QextSerialPort

(

)

[virtual]

Standard destructor.

{}
