Re: [Boost-users] C++ (boost) library for serial port communication

Hello! First of all I'd make sure that the modem actually responds. I had problems with my USB-Serial Adapter that sometimes I wasn't able to transmit/receive any data over it, reopening the port or replugging it to the computer helped there. You can do this i.e. by using a terminal application (Hyperterminal, Minicom, TeraTerm) and try to talk to the modem there. When you're sure it works, try your application. Also (even if it doesn't say so in the docs) try to send "AT\r\n" if you don't receive anything with just "AT\r"; I guess this depends on the modem firmware... Regards, Andreas Zitat von Alexander Dietz :

Hi,

this example is really useful, I created a class to talk to a serial modem. However, the 'talking ' usually does not work! I am sending an AT\r to the modem and wait for an OK. In most of the cases the code waits and waits and waits and nothing is happening. Any ideas what to check? Or what mailing list/forum to ask this question?

Thanks Alex

I have the same need. It appears boost::asio provides a good place to start. Here's an example I found.

I'd love to hear any other expert opinions on the best approach to this as well.

Hello!

I have already used this class to implement communication with serial devices in a professional environment. There's actually not much to say about it, since its use is so easy and straightforward.

I forgot to mention, that I've been using this on Windows as well as (embedded) Linux platforms. Am using it for controlling radio devices.

Regards
