libserialport (sometimes abbreviated as "sp") is a minimal, cross-platform shared library written in C that is intended to take care of the OS-specific details when writing software that uses serial ports.

For MSVC, we need to set the __declspec() for public symbols to dllexport or dllimport, depending if we are building or using the library. So, detect MSVC and define SP_API appropriately if found. We use the LIBSERIALPORT_MSBUILD define to distinguish between building and using the library, which will need to be set in the project configuration when building the library using MS tools. For normal client use of the header on other systems, we need to define SP_API to nothing to avoid it being undefined, but we need to avoid doing this in the case where we are including the header whilst building the library with autotools and SP_API is already set by autoconf. So define LIBSERIALPORT_ATBUILD in AM_CFLAGS, and don't touch SP_API in the header if that's set. |

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- libserialport: cross-platform library for accessing serial ports ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- libserialport is a minimal library written in C that is intended to take care of the OS-specific details when writing software that uses serial ports. By writing your serial code to use libserialport, you enable it to work transparently on any platform supported by the library. The operations that are supported are: - Port enumeration (obtaining a list of serial ports on the system). - Obtaining port metadata (USB device information, Bluetooth address, etc). - Opening and closing ports. - Setting port parameters (baud rate, parity, etc). - Reading, writing and flushing data. - Obtaining error information. libserialport is an open source project released under the LGPL3+ license. Status ====== The library should build and work on any Windows or Unix-based system. If it does not, please submit a bug. Enumeration is currently implemented on Windows, Mac OS X, FreeBSD and Linux. On other systems enumeration is not supported, but ports can still be opened by name and then used. If you know how to enumerate available ports on another OS, please submit a bug with this information, or better still a patch implementing it. Dependencies ============ No other libraries are required. Building ======== The package uses a GNU style build system and requires a Unix style shell. Windows builds can be created natively with the MinGW-w64 toolchain and MSYS2 environment, or cross-compiled using a MinGW-w64 toolchain: http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/ The "old" MinGW from http://mingw.org/ is not supported. Run "./autogen.sh" to generate the build system, "./configure" to setup, then "make" to build the library and "make install" to install it. API === Doxygen API documentation is included. It can also be viewed online at: http://sigrok.org/api/libserialport/unstable/ Bug reports =========== You can report bugs for libserialport at https://sigrok.org/bugzilla. Mailing list ============ https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sigrok-devel IRC === You can find the developers in the #sigrok IRC channel on Freenode.
