Why not make nodejs achieve handle serialport on windows?
That will very useful, and powerful.
I look forward to the next version to see the realization of these functions.
Hi Rango,
i don’t think this will be a a core feature but i’d love to be surprised to.
I guess porting https://github.com/voodootikigod/node-serialport to a windows backend would be a good idea and solve your needs, too.
@voodootikigod here, we are working on supporting both windows and *nix with serialport, hoping to have an update by end of the month (I need help from windows people as I haven’t programmed low level windows for a while).
One issue I noticed today (that also exists in 0.5.8):
- Under windows, you cannot use output redirection under Powershell. Works fine using CMD however.
