Hi everyone,
Can anyone give me the way how to perform serial communication in VC++? I have successfully implement it in VB.

Please guide me.
With thanks
Asif qaiyum

 

Hi Asif
You can use MScomm commponent (mscomm32.ocx which you probably use in VB) or use Windows API.

Use:

CreateFile("COM1",...);
SetCommConfig(...); // baudrate ...
WriteFile(...);
ReadFile(...);
CloseHandle(...);

Example:
for ( ; ; ) {
if (WaitCommEvent(hComm, &dwCommEvent, NULL)) {
do {
if (ReadFile(hComm, &chRead, 1, &dwRead, NULL))
// A byte has been read; process it.
else
// An error occurred in the ReadFile call.
break;
} while (dwRead);
}
else
// Error in WaitCommEvent
break;
}

use Microsoft MSCOMM control you will find it in

you will find more details in MSDN or Black book.

 

You may connect red wire to red wire and black to black. It's simple.
