Hi all,
I need to find out COM ports available on the PC on which my application
will be deployed.
I am using the following code
===START OF CODE===
RegistryKey myKey =
Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(@"HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\SERIALCOMM");
if (myKey != null)
{
string[] str = myKey.GetValueNames();
for(int i = 0 ; i < str.Length; i++)
{
if(myKey.GetValue(str[i]).ToString().StartsWith("COM"))
{
// My logic here
}
}
}
===END OF CODE===
But I feel that not all application users will have rights to read the
registry.
Is there any other mechanism to determine the number of COM ports available
on a PC?
Regards,
Vipul Patel
