WTD: IrDA software

I am trying my hand at IrDA software.

Google came up with so many hits, I am running in circles.

Does anyone have any web site with decent explanation of IrDA operation ?

Thanks

I am looking for IrDA applications written in C#.

Well the 32feet.NET library should provide all the IrDA support you'll
need, see http://32feet.net/. See my simple C# example using it at
http://www.alanjmcf.me.uk/comms/infr...iIrLpt.cs.html and
for IrCOMM in VB see
http://www.alanjmcf.me.uk/comms/infr...IrComm.vb.html
When using the full IrDA protocol stack, as shown there, the usage is
like a TCP/IP connection...

What is your usage scenario? Between two PCs with you code at both
sides? PC to embedded device already existing? Or PC to a new embedded
device already existing?

I don't know which other documents on IrDA would help. Perhaps
http://www.embedded.com/2000/0006/0006ia3.htm, or
http://www.hpl.hp.com/hpjournal/98feb/feb98a2.htm, or the book from the
first guy from Amazon.com or http://www.mclpress.com/

Thank you

I really don't have a goal, just something to do on break.

Ok, cool. ((Some applications don't use the stack as a whole, instead
using only the bottom 'physical' layer. I just asked in case that was
possibly true in your scenario. That means accessing the IrDA hardware
directly on the PC end, and then only with certain hardware.))
