hello,

I'm looking for an object that will read data from the serial port in windows 2000... what objects for serial communication are available?

i once wrote:

http://iem.kug.ac.at/pdwiki/index.php?ComPort

and it works under linux and windows,

but it looks that it doesnt behave well under W2000 (see pdwiki above ) since it does a blocked read so realtime performance could be bad.

...if some windows guru can make a clean solution, i tried the the code from the VC++ help files and didnt succeed.
