Com Port Read [modified]

Hi
In my programme VC++6.0 ATL COM, i used Com port Writing(output) through Com Port is done .But Reading(input) through Com port was not working Proberly.

Com Port Reading Function

OVERLAPPED comReader = { 0 };
BOOL fWaitingOnRead = FALSE;
char * lpBuf = "";
DWORD dwRead = 0; // bytes actually read
BOOL Success;
FILE* FilePtr;
DCB dcb = {0};
DWORD dwCommEvent;
COMMTIMEOUTS CommTimeOuts;
HANDLE hCommPort;

printf(" Inside CommThreadProc \n" );
//Opening the COM port
hCommPort = CreateFile( "COM1",GENERIC_READ,0,0,
OPEN_EXISTING,FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED, 0 );

if( hCommPort == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE )
{ printf( "Error while Opening COM Port \n" );
return ;
}
//Getting COMM settings
GetCommState( hCommPort, &dcb );
dcb.BaudRate = CBR_9600;
dcb.ByteSize = 8;
dcb.Parity = NOPARITY;
dcb.StopBits = ONESTOPBIT;
SetCommState( hCommPort, &dcb );
//Creating overlapped event handle
comReader.hEvent = CreateEvent( NULL, TRUE, FALSE, NULL );
SetCommMask( hCommPort, EV_RXCHAR );
BOOL repeat = true;

while( 1 )
{ WaitCommEvent( hCommPort, &dwCommEvent, &comReader );
if( WaitForSingleObject( comReader.hEvent, INFINITE ) == WAIT_OBJECT_0 )
{ do
{ Success = ReadFile( hCommPort,&lpBuf,512,&dwRead,&comReader );
if( !Success )
if (GetLastError() == ERROR_IO_PENDING)
printf( "Error in reading the file \n");
else
{ // writing the data into a file
FilePtr = fopen( "comport.txt", "a+" );
if( FilePtr != NULL )
fwrite( &lpBuf, dwRead, 512, FilePtr );
else
printf( "Error while opening file" );

fclose( FilePtr );
}
}while( dwRead > 0 );

}
}

CloseHandle( comReader.hEvent );
CloseHandle( hCommPort );

In message box i receive something but mesage was blank.
i try to write the received data in to "comport.txt" file but it is not working.

I want to write the receving data in txt file,receving data was an character eg:"ff fe ".

thanks

(1) enclose code snippets int <pre> tags.
(2) the following line

is wrong: you're writing 512 times the amount of data you've read. Change it to:

fwrite( &lpBuf, 1, dwRead, FilePtr );

If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

Hi
i alter the code

fwrite( &,lpBuf, 1, dwRead, FilePtr );

even the data was not write in the Text file,only text file was creating with empty. In Debug mode it cross the Write file Line then also it was not written in file

thanks

usually according to the naming convention lpBuf is already a pointer to buffer , your usage of &lpBuf seems using the address of operator two times. What is the type of lpBuf?

Do you check (with the debugger) dwRead value?
As Rajkumar R suggested, probably you haven't to take lpBuff address. How is it declared?

Please give more info (i.e. what error message you get, if you get one; what is the dwRead value and so on).

No error Message.
Text File was Creating but no data was writing.
dwRead value on Debug was "0"(zero).

hey, what is this, "char * lpBuf = "";"

where is the buffer allocated to get the data read into it.
and you used fwrite(&lpBuf..), that is why you didn't get access violation.

as i suspected, you used address of operator on a pointer.

just for testing, try
char lpBuf[1024];
ReadFile(, lpBuf,..) not &lpBuf
fwrite(lpBuf,..) not &lpBuf

And you are not using the pointers correctly, join the "Book-Buying Band"[^], two already there.

After creating and switching into 2 to 3 desktops using CreateDesktop in Windows Vista we used the 3d flip state keys (windows key + tab key) to switch between active windows... it is not working... it works fine in windows xp but not in vista... (3d flip state is when many applications are opened we can toggle between active windows minimized 3d bars in the taskbar... when doing so you can see the toggling of the minimized state of all windows)... can anyone help us with this...

Have you tried debugging? Did the registry function succeed? Did you checked the return value?

I am sorry, I forgot my telescope today and am unable to see your monitor.

Can you please elaborate more on what the problem exactly is? How exactly are you dealing with the registry and what exactly does the registry function returns?

I wrote an applcation in vc++ 2005,in which I create a new registry key and set some value. This one work proper in xp and vista. I port the same code to vc++ 2008. It works in xp, but not in vista.

I hope you can understand my problem.

Thanks.

Aren't you using some function which would create the new registry key? What is that function returning when you say it wasn't working?

long lRet = RegCreateKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,_T("Some Path"), 0, NULL,

REG_OPTION_NON_VOLATILE, KEY_WRITE, NULL, &hKey,

&dwDisposition);

lRet is 5 in the case vc++ 2008 and in the case vc++ 2005 lRet is 0
