Hi,
I need to handle the serial port of my computer for my application but the
problem is that using interoping is too complicated and i have few time to
develop the serial port management. I've heard that there is in the .net
framework version 2.0 a class SerialPort that will let me manage easily the
serial port but i want to know if it is possible to do overlapped writing and
reading operatons with that class and if it is possible to get stats about
tah serial port like number of bytes received or sent and all that stuff
without the need of calling DeviceIOControl as i have been doing till now.
Thanks

anyone knows by the way if it is a way to get the underlying handle of a
serialport object? because if it is possible i can then use teh serialport
object and use the handle only to obtain the statistics i need from the
serial port bout the number of bytes read and written,etc...
