[Gambas-user] Serial port control

[Carl Nilsson]

G'day all:
Now with Gambas 3 installed, I want to get on with porting my running 
software from VB6/Windows.  It requires processing multiple streams 
of binary serial data from attached devices.  The serial control in 
gambas 3 does not seem up to the job, in so far as the available 
properties lack the elements I use under VB MScomm.  In addition to 
the basic ones, these are inbuffer.size, outbuffer.size, 
inbuffer.count, inputMode, input Len(gth), PortOpen and, in 
particular, R Threshold and S Threshold.  The latter R/S Thresholds 
are very useful in allowing the software to get on with other 
processing while the buffers are filling - at least that is my understanding.
I ask if whoever wrote the gambas serial control has any plans to 
expand it's functionality to the MScomm level in the foreseeable 
future or can someone point me to another more comprehensive control 
I could use with gambas?
