Hi,
I wrote a C# program that is calling C++ legacy code to open a serial port
(using CreateFile (comPort,
GENERIC_READ|GE NERIC_WRITE,0,N ULL,OPEN_EXISTI NG,FILE_FLAG_OV ERLAPPED,NULL))
..
So far, it works.
Now, at startup, I start 4 C# threads.
These threads are opening Com ports #2, #3, #4 and #5.
Sometimes, these 4 Com ports are opened successfully but, most of the time,
1 Com port opening failed.
The GetLastError returns 5 (access denied).
So, my question is :
Is it safe to call 4 CreateFile (for different Com ports of course) in
parallel thread at the same time ?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Droopy.

Yes it is. The "Access denied" error code has IMO nothing to do with the
number of threads, are you sure this error is returned by the CreateFile
call?

Yes.
To be more precise, CreateFile returns INVALID_HANDLE_ VALUE and
GetLastError () returns 5 (Access Denied)
Sorry for this late answer. Yes it is. The "Access denied" error code has IMO nothing to do with
the number of threads, are you sure this error is returned by the

Have I to start it sequentially or add any timeout between thread

Please excuse the cross-post - I'm pretty sure I've had interest in the
article on all the groups this is posted to.
I've finally managed to finish my article on multi-threading - at least
for the moment. I'd be *very* grateful if people with any interest in
multi-threading would read it (even just bits of it - it's somewhat
long to go through the whole thing!) to check for accuracy,
effectiveness of examples, etc.
Feel free to mail...

Hi,
I am trying to access Serial Port in XP. I am using Dev-C++ IDE that
uses Mingw as a compiler. I just want to know how I can open up serial
port on COM1 and write some data. I have searched quite a bit over the
web and could not find anything useful. I don't want to use Visual C++
or Cygwin, linux, etc. If any of you guys have some little tid bit of
code that would be great to look at.

Is it possible to specify which port to use as the outbound port on a

Use the -v option on the Python command line to identify which DLL is

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
