I try to write the simple program allowing exchanging packages through
Serial Port with POS Terminal.
Ask to explain to me that I do incorrectly?
I bring a piece Class Serial
Def wait_for_data (device)
@device=open(device,"a+")
# Put in POS terminal code "ENQ"
@device.putc(0x05)
@device.flush
# Wait the answer from POS terminal
select ([@device],nil,nil,0)
@device.each_byte {|byte|
print byte,"\n"
}
end
end
serial_port='/dev/ttyS2'
# Serial part
ser=Serial.new
serial_server=Thread.new {
ser.wait_for_data(serial_port)
}
# Network part
....
The code "ENQ" really comes in POS and it answers in Serial Port, but I
can not receive it. Whether I can use here for this purpose IOCTL?
If not it is difficult, write an example of use of function IOCTL c
FIONREAD and TIOCMGET in parameters.
Many thanks
