SerialPortConfig class abstract

Serial port config.

You should always configure all settings before using a port. There are no default settings applied by the library. When you open a port, it may have default settings from the OS or driver, or the settings left over by the last program to use it.

You should always set baud rate, data bits, parity and stop bits.

You should normally also set one of the preset flow control modes, which will set up the RTS, CTS, DTR and DSR pin behaviours and enable or disable XON/XOFF.

If you need an unusual configuration not covered by the preset flow control modes, you will need to configure these settings individually, and avoid setting flow control which will overwrite these settings.

@note A port must be opened before you can change its settings.

Use getters and setters like baudRate to get and set individual settings from a configuration.

For each setting in a port configuration, a special value of -1 can be used, which will cause that setting to be left alone when the configuration is applied by SerialPort.config setter.

This value is also be used for any settings which are not configured at the OS level, or in a state that is not representable within the library API.

Configurations must be disposed using dispose(). When a new configuration is created, all of its settings are initially set to the special -1 value.
