According to its documentation you can tie it to a file handle and the read and write from it as if it were a normal file handle. There are also methods on the object to read and write (streamline and write). from http://search.cpan.org/~bbirth/Win32-SerialPort-0.19/lib/Win32/SerialPort.pm#Methods_for_I/O_Processing $PortObj = tie (*FH, 'Win32::SerialPort', $Configuration_File_Name) || die "Can't tie: $^E\n"; ## TIEHANDLE ## print FH "text"; ## PRINT ## $char = getc FH; ## GETC ## syswrite FH, $out, length($out), 0; ## WRITE ## $line = <FH>; ## READLINE ## @lines = <FH>; ## READLINE ## printf FH "received: %s", $line; ## PRINTF ## read (FH, $in, 5, 0) or die "$^E"; ## READ ## sysread (FH, $in, 5, 0) or die "$^E"; ## READ ## close FH || warn "close failed"; ## CLOSE ## undef $PortObj; untie *FH; ## DESTROY ## $PortObj->linesize(10); # with READLINE $PortObj->lastline("_GOT_ME_"); # with READLINE, list only $old_ors = $PortObj->output_record_separator("RECORD"); # with PRINT $old_ofs = $PortObj->output_field_separator("COMMA"); # with PRINT -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
