Try to use the Free Software Foundations GNU-C/C++
It contains all you may need to write your applications. Documentation is available all over the world at different Web locations
please see at: http://www.gnu.org

The compiler home page:

http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/gcc.html

For use with Gates OSes :
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/

If you face a complex application, you can use Microsoft VC++6.0. Otherwise, to use Mscomm ActiveX component in VB is the simple method.

Hi,

I have done some programming involving serial communication. This programming becomes very easy when you use a library rather than using
c++ functions directly. I have used a library called Greenleaf Comm++. I had good experience with this library. It doesn't cost much and makes
programming of serial communications very easy,plus it is object oriented.

*nix (Linux, Unix ....... QNX)=GNU

Anything else is overkill (and you will not learn what you are really doing
;-) )
 
I would never recommend using an AtiveX component for a simple console application. I recommend you to use any C or C++ compiler, preferably
GCC, because it would be easier to port to other platforms, but you can use MS VC++ if you prefer.

HI !

I'm a sun certified java programmer with hardcore exposure in real time systems ( ofcourse using VB & VC++ ) For ur application, if u want to have very efficient system then go for WIN32 api in VC++ environment. Java, VB & even MFC cannot coupup with the speed acheived with WIN32. You cant offor to make a real time system using VB' MSComm control. If u want i can give u a my dll using these WIN32 apis functions ( ofcourse free of charge ).

Bye

Rightnow i have C++ class which shows how to read write & open the ports on Windows. If it can help u let me know.

HI ! The Dll I was talking about can be used to communicate with devices connected on Serial Port. If your card is on PCI or is some kind of plugin card then it wont help you. For such kind of cards you need to write a device driver using the kit provided by Microsoft. It uses a different set of APIs (called Win DDK) & is not easy to write one. [email protected]

HI,
Hey the dll I was talking about uses WIN32 SDK & not pure C functions. So, u wont be able to use them with ease from pure C.

You can really buy things but try to do it on your own, its not very difficult. Specially if u have exposure to C++ & windows. Please let me
know about the cost of Greenleaf Comm++ library. If possible I can also come up with similar library (not free of cost this time).
