Hi,
I'm trying to establish communication with an IR enabled device (like Pocket PC, TV etc. . ) through USB-to-IrDA adaptor from Symbian Emulator. What port name should I use in Open call? If I say (IRCOMM::0) how does the Emulator know that the IRDA adaptor is connected to USB port? Any help on this would be really useful.
I have actually installed the software IrCOMM2K, which creates a Virtual IR COMM port with port number as 3 ( could be any number >2, as COM1 and COM2 already exists).
In the Emulator I say open[COMM::2)], so that emulator writes/reads from this Virtual IR COMM port. But I don't understand how this data would be passed onto the USB Port, where my actual IR adaptor is connected. I thot that probably Virtual IR COMM port writes onto Windows IRDA stack and this data would be read by the driver installed for IRDA adaptor. But I really don't see it practically happening. .
It would be of great help if I can get some info on the setup.
thanks a zillion.
Kishore.
