Re: How to test my serial driver



Hi Kracks,

Sometimes OAL will initialize a serial port to be a debug port for printing
debug messages whether there is a serial port driver or not.
So the debug messages can be shown without any serial port driver.
If you want to load a serial port driver to replace the debug port, you
should disable this debug port or change the debug port into another serial
port.

I hope it is useful ^_^

Hi,
I am working in wince5.0. I am bit new to device driver
developement.
I have created serial driver.
Root is (wince500/platform/src/drivers/serial and i complied from
pbworkspace\openworkspace\ open release directory\sysgen\build -c
and i got ser2440.dll
ser2440.dll i added in project.bib file as well as in platform.bib,
project.reg.
With and without ser2440.dll(created by me) i am getting debug
messages when i load my OS to target board.
I hv a doubt that if i didn't include my serial driver (ie. PDD) while
building OS i should not get debug messages once i load OS to target
device.

I also gave BSP_NOPCMCIA and BSP_NOPCCARD also as environment
variables.
Even though i am getting debug messages.
I don't know how i am getting without PDD serial driver.
Whether MDD presents in platform builder itself gives debug messages
or anyother thing.

I am confused. Help me regarding this issue.
How to check my serial driver?


Regards,
Kirthika
