Top Forums Programming how to write application for 32 com port Post 302129490 by porter on Tuesday 31st of July 2007 07:54:09 AM

There are three basic options.

1. Write a single application and run 32 copies of it (this is the same way getty works)

2. Write a single-threaded application and use 'select' to determine which port is ready to read or write from.

3. Write a multi-threaded application and use either a thread per port, or two threads per port (one for reading, one for writing).

I would recommend option 1 as it's the easiest to write and test.

Option 2 is a more portable solution than 3 as you can avoid multithreading race conditions and synchronisation issues.
