I used that in Delphi including the variation that uses TCP/IP rather than COM: as transport layer. I used it, without really having to understand what was going on behind the scenes... But as you say it is Windows-only... And very complex to hack into as well. So I turned to Indy10 now since I don't need serial, but have to handle the blocking sockets in a scenario similar to event driven handling.... I will watch this! :) -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
