Communications Demonstration
SUMMARY
=======
The COMM sample (TTY) is designed to demonstrate using the Win32
communications functions while maintaining a common code base with
16-bit Windows code.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The program performs communications using the functions OpenFile, ReadFile,
SetCommState, SetCommMask, WaitCommEvent, WriteFile, and CloseFile.
The program creates a background thread to watch for COMM receiver events
and posts a notification message to the main terminal window. Foreground
character processing is written to the communications port.
Simple TTY character translation is performed and a screen buffer is
implemented for use as the I/O window.
Overlapped file I/O techniques are demonstrated.
Usage:
The baud rate, data bits, stop bits, parity, port, RTS/CTS handshaking,
DTR/DSR handshaking, and XON/XOFF handshaking can be changed under the
Settings menu item.
Once the communications settings are set, the Action menu item can be
selected to connect or disconnect the program.
