Are there any plans to add the IR Libraries to standard .NET and not just
have them in the Compact Framework. It would be nice to be able to
developer for an IR port on a laptop or a tablet.
 
Hi Eric,

Currently, .Net Framework did not have build-in support for this, what we
can do is P/invoke CreateFile Win32 API to communicate with IR Port, for
more information, please refer to below article:
"Use P/Invoke to Develop a .NET Base Class Library for Serial Device
Communications"
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/02/10/NETSerialComm/

But, in .Net 2.0, Serial Port communication is added in, for more
information, please refer to:
".NET v2.0: Serial Port Communications Finally Arrives "
