Hi All,
I write a dll use vb.net 2005 to read data from a serial port and use this
dll in a C# 2005 application. It works well except when I close the port.
After I close the port, sometimes the dll stopped at the readline statement
in data_received function. But the port closed already, why this function is
still fired? ( is it because the delay message? I guess ) I catch the
exception and try to throw a excption, but the dll stopped at the throw
exception statement. This problem is not always there, but sometimes, lets
say 1 of 5. The error message in debug mode is "System.IO.IOEx ception was
unhandled".
Your help are always appreciated

Hi,
This (probably) is a problem in the device driver handling the serial port.
I say this because I have seen it with USB serial devices, but not with
internal ports that use physical UARTs instead of the virtual UART that is
furnished by a USB adapter.
You can download DesktopSerialIO .dll for VS2005 from my homepage. I have
tested it with several USB devices, and it (so far) does not have this
problem. Let me know if it works for you. The API that it provides is
similar the SerialPort, but not exactly the same, so you will have to do a
small amount of "porting."

Thank you, Richard
Sorry for the late reply.
I'm trying to use your dll; one question, how the CommPort (an Integer)
relate to Serial Port ( a string, COM1, COM2...)?

Hi Richard,
Is the InputString same as ReadLine?
If set the PortOpen property to false, is the Port closed and released? Or
should I use dispose to release the port?
Thanks

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.

I made an app in c# that uses several serial ports.
For the serial ports I use a pnp Sunix board, some with 8 serial ports
other with 4 or even 2 serial ports.
Whenever I use the development computer I don't have ay problem with
my application.
