TTY streams are used to represent serial connections that are fully "streamable" objects using C++ stream classes and friends.

void | initConfig (void) |
| Used to initialize a newly opened serial file handle. More...
|

| Serial (const char *name) |
| A serial object may be constructed from a named file on the file system. More...
|
|
virtual | ~Serial () |
| The serial base class may be "thrown" as a result on an error, and the "catcher" may then choose to destory the object. More...
|
|
Serial & | operator= (const Serial &from) |
| Serial ports may also be duplecated by the assignment operator. More...
|
|
Error | setSpeed (unsigned long speed) |
| Set serial port speed for both input and output. More...

Error | setFlowControl (Flow flow) |
| Set flow control. More...
|
|
void | toggleDTR (timeout_t millisec) |
| Set the DTR mode off momentarily. More...
|
|
void | sendBreak (void) |
| Send the "break" signal. More...
|
|
Error | getErrorNumber (void) |

|
|
char * | getErrorString (void) |
| Often used by a "catch" to fetch the user set error string of a thrown serial. More...

TTY streams are used to represent serial connections that are fully "streamable" objects using C++ stream classes and friends.
The first application relevant serial I/O class is the TTYStream class. TTYStream offers a linearly buffered "streaming" I/O session with the serial device. Furthermore, traditional C++ "stream" operators (<< and >>) may be used with the serial device. A more "true" to ANSI C++ library format "ttystream" is also available, and this supports an "open" method in which one can pass initial serial device parameters immediately following the device name in a single string, as in "/dev/tty3a:9600,7,e,1", as an example.
The TTYSession aggragates a TTYStream and a Common C++ Thread which is assumed to be the execution context that will be used to perform actual I/O operations. This class is very anagolous to TCPSession.
