Also is there any serial port component available? I have been
using Cport with D6.
I've been successfully using synaser (http://www.ararat.cz/synapse/)
with lazarus. I made some changes to make it work (and changed the
behaviour of connect not to change the name of the device: it's better
with usb serial port). Note that I developed my program under linux, but
it should work fine in windows too.
My changes are attached, I forgot to send them upstream (I'll do it asap).

Did you sent patch to Synapse development group and author ?
I did so right after I sent that message, to Lukáš Gebauer (from the
page http://www.ararat.cz/synapse/credits.htm)
is that
really work with USB also ?
Yes. The problem with the original implementation is that, in IMHO a
misguided attempt to cross compatibility, it mangled the name of the
device, so if you try to open 'COM1' it would try to open /dev/ttyS0
under linux, and viceversa. The problem is that serial usb ports take
the name /dev/ttyUSBx (where x is the number of the port), so that
approach would fail miserably.
I changed that so that the library doesn't mangle the name (i.e. you can
try to open the device with any name) and added an overloaded method to
open the port by number (e.g. 1 for COM1 or /dev/ttyS0).
And I'm pretty sure it works: I have 4 PCs using this library to gather
data on an assembly line working 24h a day ;-)
