Re: ser_filter

Hi

I want to use the "ser_filter.exe" of ecos v2.0b1 under Windows 2000.

I try the following:
C:\temp\ser_filter>ser_filter -n -f -c -S COM1 115200

I try some other combination of options, but always get the help text.

NOTE:
The above example worked with "ser_filter.exe" from ecos 1.3.1.

ser_filter hasn't been well tested so far. Can you submit this to bugzilla please?


Another question:
I have configured my target (own port like ARM7 EB40) to use software flow control.
For serial test I use "ser_filter.exe" from ecos 1.3.1.
I run serial tests "serial1, serial2" successfully, but all other tests fails.


Reason for the failure:
The "ser_filter.exe" will send binary data containing character "XON" "XOFF", which will be interpreted by the target for the software flow control and ignored in the RX data stream.
If I look to serial test "flow1" one test case is "software flow control".


(1) Is it ever possible to run the serial tests with a target configured to software flow control?.
(2) Does anyone try the same successfully?

Do you mean your serial driver implements software flow control by itself or something? ser_filter shouldn't send XON/XOFF unless the test case specifically asks it to, like flow1.
