MFC application using COM port for serial communication stops on minimization

Hi,

I'm working on a MFC application that is used to write application code
to FLASH memory of a device. I'm using COM port for the communication
with the device. For reading from and writing to the COM port, separate
threads (along with semaphores) are being used. This application works
fine if it is not minimized. But once if the application is minimized,
it gives an error because some data is being missed out during
communication with the device. Has anybody faced the same problem....??
Can anybody help me out with this problem.

Thanks,
-KC

You would probably find people more suited to answer your question in
one of the microsoft.publi c.xxx newsgroups. Maybe there is a specific
one for MFC.

Hi, I'm writing a couple python applications that use the serial port (RS-232) quite extensively. Is there any way I can monitor all activity on the serial port and have it printed as the transactions occur? I'm trying to reverse engineer a microcontroller serial routine and I'd like to see any response the chip sends back. Regards, Ken

Hi all, I'm a newbie in .NET technology. I've already developed Serial communication applications in C++ (WIN32). And I wanted to migrate to .NET technology. There is a serial component in framework to read and write on serial port. I would like to make asynchronous reception. I saw that we can pass a delegate to the serial class which is call when some data is readen on the port.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
