Hi
I am stumped. Xojo SerialController connects OK to my device's virtual serial port on windows (its a microcontroller that uses mbed USBSerial to establish a virtual serial port)
It also sends data ok to the device
The device both sends and receives correctly on PuTTY and CoolTerm (which I understand was made with Xojo)
But no matter what I try (XON, DTR on off, RTS on off, polling SerialPort.poll with a timer, DataAvailable etc etc) the BytesAvailable coming IN to the Xojo app refuses to go above zero. DataAvailable event is never firing - and this project is a copy of the Serial barcode reader, so by all rights it should.
I am totally stumped why this thing does not work. If I saw the source code of CoolTerm, I could probably figure it out, but since the source is not available, well...
Please give some ideas why a virtual serial port is not firing the data available on a Xojo program. I have tried everything and am at a total loss why it won't work. Any ideas appreciated.
