Does OpenNetCF.Serial support only binary data transfer? I've gotten some
code from the OpenNetCF Forum and it only seems to support byte transfers.
Even in a PC to PC, Hypertext transfer. I need it to do all types including
Bluetooth and Compact Framework transfers.
 
Huh? The Serial namespace includes support for serial devices, not for
serialization.

Hi,

It supports binary data only (native). However, converting Text to and from
binary is straight forward. The examples cover this, but if you have a
specific question about converting, I'll be happy to help.

Or, you can download CFSerialIO from my homepage. It support both Text and
Binary data internally.

Thanks. I forgot about that resource. I bought your book last winter on
serial devices. It covers a lot for vb6, a little for compact and .net
framework. I will look at the website again and go thru the book.
 
Hi,

It doesn't have the Compact Framework (yet). It was written about one year
before Visual Studio 2003 was released.

I send the source code to any reader who requests it. Just send me email.
