RS232/Serial port control library using C#

Hello,

Does anybody know if there are any freeware or inexpensive RS232/
Serial port libraries
that are C# .NET 1.1 or .NET 2.0? I think there is a SerialPort class
in .NET 2.0 /C# but
it is probably not too robust.

Thanks
Mike

Mike,

You can use System.IO.Ports.SerialPort in C#.
Its simple.

But, as Mike suggested, it isn't very powerful.
