NUTSCAN_GET_SERIAL_P(3) NUT Manual NUTSCAN_GET_SERIAL_P(3)NAMEnutscan_get_serial_ports_list - Get a port list name from a range of
port.
SYNOPSIS
#include <nut-scan.h>
char ** nutscan_get_serial_ports_list(const char *ports_range);
DESCRIPTION
The nutscan_get_serial_ports_list() function returns a null terminated
array of string generated from a port range. ports_range may be one of:
· a single character from 0 to 9 or a to z representing a serial
communication port depending on the operating system. For instance
"0" is converted to /dev/ttyS0 and /dev/ttyUSB0 on Linux; "1" is
converted to COM1 on Windows; "c" is converted to /dev/ttyc on
solaris...
· a range of character in the form "X-Y". For instance "0-1" will be
converted to /dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyS1, /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1
on Linux; "1-3" will be converted to COM1, COM2 and COM3 on
Windows; "a-c" will be converted to /dev/ttya, /dev/ttyb and
/dev/ttyc on Solaris.
· a single port name (/dev/ttyS5, COM4...).
· a list of port names separated with comas :
"/dev/ttyS0,/dev/ttyS2,/dev/ttyS4" or "COM1,COM3"...
The returned array can be used in a call to nutscan_scan_eaton_serial
to get the serial device on a system.
RETURN VALUE
The nutscan_get_serial_ports_list() function returns NULL if an error
occured (invalid port range) or a pointer to a nll terminated array of
string on success.
