RE: COM port setup

2003-01-17 Thread Paul Munden 
Cool thanks this seems to work as I can see my IR port trying to connect to
my IR on my mobile but the problem is I keep getting '/dev/com4: Permission
denied' when I'm running my code. If these are virtual links, how can I
look at changing the permissions on them ?

Paul

Cygwin has pseudo /dev directory, the device name mapping is
/dev/ttyS0 - com1
/dev/ttyS1 - com2
/dev/ttyS2 - com3
/dev/ttyS3 - com4

You can use both unix and windows device names to open a com port, ie
fopen(/dev/ttyS0) and fopen(com1) do the same, but I suggest you to
use unix-like names.

 Hi,

 I'm hoping you could help me. I'm using CYGWIN to run some
 SMS tools and the tools config files need setting up to add
 the details of which com port I'm using. Basically I just
 need to know how I would go about creating the com4 object in
 /dev so that it does actually point at the com port as when
 installed, CYGWIN came with no /dev or any example of how I
 would setup the com object.

 Any help appreciated

 Paul.
