Get USB serial port device ID

Targets Linux
1

Good morning

My pipewriter RPi app needs to connect to several USB serial ports where each one has a specific function.

So the normal approach of adding serial devices doesn’t work as during boot it is unclear which device gets /dev/ttyUSB0, /dev/ttyUSB1 and so on.

Does Xojo support listing of serial ports by Linux /dev/serial/by-id path?

Not to my knowledge. On MacOS and Windows one has to use declares, plugins, or calls to system utilities via Shell; I imagine it’s the same for Linux.
