If you specify hardware handshaking in the SerSettingsType or the srmCtlSetFlags
control call, Poser will enable hardware handshaking on the host serial port.

However, the effect you see in your emulated application may be different from
what you see on an actual device. Poser buffers up serial data and sends them
out in later (that is, in a different thread on Windows, and during idle time on
the Mac). Thus, the emulated UART buffer can be emptied, even if CTS is not
asserted in the host serial port.

Also, Poser does not support manual control of the RTS bit. I've never
researched how to do that on all the supported platforms, and it's never really
been an issue.

Subject:  RTS/CTS and serial port under emulator



Hi there,

Does anyone know if the emulated Palm correctly performs RTS/CTS handshaking
on the emulated PC or Mac?
