Serial Port I/O Function: Displays the state of a port to standard output.
Module: USE IFPORT
Syntax
result = SPORT_SHOW_STATE (port, level)
port
(Input) Integer. The port number.
level
(Input) Integer. Controls the level of detail displayed as follows:
| 0 | Basic one line display |
| 1 | Basic information |
| 2 | Add modem signal control flow information |
| 3 | Add XON/XOFF information |
| 4 | Add event character information |
| 11 | Add timeout information |
| 901 | Add debug information |
Results
The result type is INTEGER(4). The result is zero if successful; otherwise, a Windows* error value.
This routine must not be used when any I/O is pending. Since a read operation is always pending after any I/O has been started, you must first call SPORT_CANCEL_IO before port parameters can be changed.
