Hello guys,
I am testing the sending and receiving programs with the code as
The main() function is below:
include
include
include
include
include
include
include "read_write.h"
int fd;
int initport(int fd) {
struct termios options;
// Get the current options for the port...
tcgetattr(fd, &options);
// Set the baud rates to 19200...
cfsetispeed(&options, B9600);
cfsetospeed(&options, B9600);
// Enable the receiver and set local mode...
options.c_cflag |= (CLOCAL | CREAD);
options.c_cflag &= ~PARENB;
options.c_cflag &= ~CSTOPB;
options.c_cflag &= ~CSIZE;
options.c_cflag |= CS8;
// Set the new options for the port...
tcsetattr(fd, TCSANOW, &options);
return 1;
}
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
fd = open("/dev/pts/2", O_RDWR | O_NOCTTY | O_NDELAY);
if (fd == -1) {
perror("open_port: Unable to open /dev/pts/1 - ");
return 1;
} else {
fcntl(fd, F_SETFL, 0);
}
printf("baud=%d\n", getbaud(fd));
initport(fd);
printf("baud=%d\n", getbaud(fd));
char sCmd[254];
sCmd[0] = 0x41;
sCmd[1] = 0x42;
sCmd[2] = 0x43;
sCmd[3] = 0x00;
if (!writeport(fd, sCmd)) {
printf("write failed\n");
close(fd);
return 1;
}
printf("written:%s\n", sCmd);
usleep(500000);
char sResult[254];
fcntl(fd, F_SETFL, FNDELAY);
if (!readport(fd,sResult)) {
printf("read failed\n");
close(fd);
return 1;
}
printf("readport=%s\n", sResult);
close(fd);
return 0;
}
read_write.h:
#include <stdio.h> /* Standard input/output definitions */
include /* String function definitions */
include /* UNIX standard function definitions */
include /* File control definitions */
include /* Error number definitions */
include /* POSIX terminal control definitions */
int writeport(int fd, char *chars) {
int len = strlen(chars);
chars[len] = 0x0d; // stick a after the command
chars[len+1] = 0x00; // terminate the string properly
int n = write(fd, chars, strlen(chars));
if (n < 0) {
fputs("write failed!\n", stderr);
return 0;
}
return 1;
}
int readport(int fd, char *result) {
int iIn = read(fd, result, 254);
result[iIn-1] = 0x00;
if (iIn < 0) {
if (errno == EAGAIN) {
printf("SERIAL EAGAIN ERROR\n");
return 0;
} else {
printf("SERIAL read error %d %s\n", errno, strerror(errno));
return 0;
}
}
return 1;
}
and got the issue:
In order to test with serial port, I used the socat (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualSerialPort ) to create a pair serial ports on Linux and test my program with these port.
The first time the program sends the data and the program receives data is ok. However, if I read again or even re-write the new data into the serial port, the return data is always null until I stop the virtual serial port and start it again, then the write and read data is ok, but still, only one time.
(In the real case, the sending part will be done by another device, I am just taking care of the reading data from the serial port. I wrote both parts just to test my reading code.)
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks a lot.
