Constructor & Destructor Documentation

cRS232::cRS232 ( int  _port,
unsigned long  _baudrate,
double  _timeout,
char const *  _device_format_string = "/dev/ttyS%d" 
)

Constructor: constructs an object to communicate with an SDH via RS232

Parameters:
_port- rs232 device number: 0='COM1'='/dev/ttyS0', 1='COM2'='/dev/ttyS1', ...
_baudrate- the baudrate in bit/s
_timeout- the timeout in seconds
_device_format_string- a format string (C string) for generating the device name, like "/dev/ttyS%d" (default) or "/dev/ttyUSB%d". Must contain a d where the port number should be inserted. This char array is duplicated on construction
cRS232::cRS232 ( int  _port,
unsigned long  _baudrate,
double  _timeout,
char const *  _device_format_string = "" 
)

Constructor: constructs an object to communicate with an SDH via RS232

Parameters:
_port- rs232 device number: 0='COM1'='/dev/ttyS0', 1='COM2'='/dev/ttyS1', ...
_baudrate- the baudrate in bit/s
_timeout- the timeout in seconds
_device_format_string- ignored for this VCC version

Member Function Documentation

tcflag_t cRS232::BaudrateToBaudrateCode ( unsigned long  baudrate) throw (cRS232Exception*) [protected]

Translate a baudrate given as unsigned long into a baudrate code for struct termios.

void cRS232::Close ( void  ) throw (cRS232Exception*) [virtual]

Close the previously opened communication channel.

Implements cSerialBase.

void cRS232::Close ( void  ) throw (cRS232Exception*) [virtual]

Close the previously opened rs232 port.

Implements cSerialBase.

bool cRS232::IsOpen ( ) throw () [inline, virtual]

Return true if communication channel is open.

Implements cSerialBase.

Definition at line 112 of file rs232-vcc.h.

bool cRS232::IsOpen ( void  ) throw () [virtual]

Return true if port to RS232 is open.

Implements cSerialBase.

void cRS232::Open ( void  ) throw (cRS232Exception*) [virtual]

Open rs232 port port.

Open the device with the parameters provided in the constructor

Implements cSerialBase.

void cRS232::Open ( void  ) throw (cRS232Exception*) [virtual]

Open the device as configured by the parameters given to the constructor

Bug:
The binary communication introduced in firmware 0.0.2.15 and SDHLibrary-C++ 0.0.2.0 did not work properly on Linux when RS232 was used for communication.

ssize_t cRS232::Read ( void *  data,
ssize_t  size,
long  timeout_us,
bool  return_on_less_data 
) throw (cRS232Exception*) [virtual]

Read data from device. This function waits until max_time_us us passed or the expected number of bytes are received via serial line. if (return_on_less_data is true (default value), the number of bytes that have been received are returned and the data is stored in data If the return_on_less_data is false, data is only read from serial line, if at least size bytes are available.

Implements cSerialBase.

ssize_t cRS232::Read ( void *  data,
ssize_t  size,
long  timeout_us,
bool  return_on_less_data

Read data from device. This function waits until max_time_us us passed or the expected number of bytes are received via serial line. if (return_on_less_data is true (default value), the number of bytes that have been received are returned and the data is stored in data If the return_on_less_data is false, data is only read from serial line, if at least size bytes are available.

Implements cSerialBase.
