Serial IR ??

[Sinex]

Hi,
Using embedded VC++ we can do IR communication programatically by using
the serial communication API...saying open but specifying the IR port
number. Then what happens is that we use raw IR (serial IR) without having
to use the entire IRDA stack. How do we do this from .net compact framework
using C#?

SDF inludes the serial port comm classes whic you can use for that purpose.

Sinex,

You have a couple of options. One is to PInvoke all the WinAPI functions you
need and just write C# code the same way you wrote your C++ code. Another
way is to use the serial class on www.opennetcf.org, but either way you're
really doing about the same thing under the covers.
