Re: [Dev-C++] port access???

[Jason H. <jas...@bt...>]

I'm pretty sure I have an old electronics magazine that gives details of =
accessing the ports or some of them. I might be tempted to dig it out if =
you want. Although as Kevin Wood suggests you can open up a file stream =
to those devices. LPT1, COM1, COM2, etc... the control would be more =
limited, but sufficient to get and send strings of data to them.

I'm sure if you do a little searching then you'll find some information =
on accessing the ports, on the web.

  Subject: [Dev-C++] port access???



  Hi!

  I want to programm an little robot. I used the Dev-C++ for my last =
C-projects and so this time too. I use the dev-c++ with the =
mingw-compiler. Now my problem after reading many homepages I know the =
compiler doesn't support functions like inpportb() and outportb(). I red =
in the Dev-C++ forum that hong lia developed some libraries and header =
files with can solve my problem. I was on his home page but the link was =
broken.=20
  Now my question know anyone how to access the parallel or serial port =
in dos with the Dev-C++.

  Thanx mc.navar =20
