Introduction
Serial communications is needed in several types of applications, but the Win32 API isn't a very easy to use API to implement it. Things get even more complicated when you want to use serial communication in an MFC based program. The classes provided in the library try to make life a little easier. Its documentation is extensive, because I want to give you a good background. Serial communication is hard and good knowledge of its implementation saves you a lot of work, both now and in the future...
First I'll briefly discuss why serial communications is hard. After reading that chapter you'll probably be convinced as well that you need a class, which deals with serial communication. The classes provided in the library are not the only classes, which handle the serial communication. Many other programmers wrote their own classes, but I found many of them too inefficient or they weren't robust, scalable or suitable for non-MFC programs. I tried to make these classes as efficient, reliable and robust as possible, without sacrificing ease of use too much.
The library has been developed as a public domain library some time ago, but it has been used in several commercial applications. I think most bugs have been solved, but unfortunately I cannot guarantee that there are no bugs left. If you find one (or correct a bug), please inform me so I can update the library.
