I need to communicate using a serial port. Are there any classes or
libraries for this in .NET? If not are there any open source libraries for
this out there?

This is a common request. There are none baked into the current 1.1
Framework. I think there implementations out there.

There's nothing built in the current product.
I've used the SerialStream class from http://www.gotdotnet.com successfully.

This is a good sample. I used it for a couple of in-house projects. http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/is...netserialcomm/
Hi Jim
Thank you for posting in the community!
Based on my understanding, you want to communicate with serial port in
.Net.
=============== =============== =========
Just as community member suggested, you may get this done through P/invoke
win32 API with this article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/is...netserialcomm/
You can find more information about how to use serial port in .Net from: http://www.gotdotnet.com/community/m....aspx?id=72182
The more I want to point out is that, if you want to specify Serial Ports
larger than COM9, you need different syntax, please refer to: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;[LN];115831
=============== =============== =========
Thank you for your patience and cooperation. If you have any questions or
concerns, please feel free to post it in the group. I am standing by to be
of assistance.
Have a nice day!!

There is another option if you do want to do anything to complicated:
The Visual Basic Resource Kit contains the "Sax.net Communications Community
Edition". This is a very easy to use class for using the Serial Port and can
be used from C#.

I'd like to write a program in VB.Net that handles serial communications to
several devices. VB.Net 2003 does not have adequate built-in serial
communications. I heard that 2005 will have that. Has this serial
communications functionality been built into 2005 Beta yet? If so, is there
any reason I can't get the Beta and create the program with serial
communications now?

Hello,
Is there a way, in .NET, to determine what are the avialable Serial
(Communications) Ports on a Windows OS and is there a way to determine
that port isn't being use other than attempting to opening the Serial
Port and catching the associated exception? Thanks
If there isn't a way to determine the Serial Port within .NET I would
be willing, I guess, to use a WinAPI is that was the only way.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
