Hello All, Last week I sent an email about a problem with a serial printer that used DTS/DTR hardware flow control. I later understood that DTS/DTR was not supported in linux , and therefore not in wine. Linux [and wine] support RTS/CTS hardware flow control.
Since the protocols are similar, an ideia that I received was to construct a cable that made the computer think it was using RTS/CTS and the printer think it was using DTR/DTS. Today, I received the cable from the printer manufacturer and the initial tests with wine/linux worked. **************************** RTS - Ready To Send CTS - Clear To Send DTR - Data Terminal Ready DSR - Data Set Ready **************************** Here is a snippet of mytestapp --debugmsg +comm trace:comm:COMM_Init COM1 = /dev/ttyS0 trace:comm:COMM_Init LPT1 = /dev/lp0 trace:comm:COMM_Init COM2 = /dev/ttyS1 trace:comm:COMM_Init COM3 = /dev/ttyS2 trace:comm:COMM_Init COM4 = /dev/modem trace:comm:BuildCommDCBAndTimeoutsA (COM2:9600,N,8,1,0x4002af48,(nil)) trace:comm:COMM_BuildOldCommDCB (COM2:9600,N,8,1), ptr 0x4002af48 trace:comm:COMM_BuildOldCommDCB baudrate (9600) trace:comm:COMM_BuildOldCommDCB parity (N) trace:comm:COMM_BuildOldCommDCB charsize (8) trace:comm:COMM_BuildOldCommDCB stopbits (1) trace:comm:SetCommState handle 52, ptr 0x4002af48 trace:comm:SetCommState bytesize 8 baudrate 9600 fParity 0 Parity 0 stopbits 1 trace:comm:SetCommState ~IXON ~IXOFF trace:comm:SetCommState CRTSCTS trace:comm:SetCommMask handle 52, mask 10 Thanks every one from wine-devel for all the prompt answers I received.
