[Bug 669625] - - -Version 1.20 28 Aug 2003 ---------------------------- -- Added ``serial.device()`` for all platforms - -Bugfixes (win32): - -- don't recreate overlapped structures and events on each - read/write. -- don't set unneeded event masks. -- dont use DOS device names for ports > 9. -- remove send timeout (its not used in the linux impl. anyway). - - -Version 1.21 30 Sep 2003 ---------------------------- -Bugfixes (win32): - -- name for COM10 was not built correctly, found by Norm Davis. - -Bugfixes (examples): - -- small change in ``miniterm.py`` that should mage it run on cygwin, - [Bug 809904] submitted by Rolf Campbell. - - -Version 2.0b1 1 Oct 2003 ---------------------------- -Transition to the Python 2.0 series: - -- New implementation only supports Python 2.2+, backwards compatibility - should be maintained almost everywhere. - The OS handles (like the ``hComPort`` or ``fd`` attribute) were prefixed - with an underscore. The different names stay, as anyone that uses one of - these has to write platform specific code anyway. -- Common base class ``serialutil.SerialBase`` for all implementations. -- ``PARITY_NONE``, ``PARITY_EVEN``, ``PARITY_ODD`` constants changed and all - these constants moved to ``serialutil.py`` (still available as - ``serial.PARITY_NONE`` etc. and they should be used that way) -- Added ``serial.PARITY_NAMES`` (implemented in ``serialutil.PARITY_NAMES``). - This dictionary can be used to convert parity constants to meaningful - strings. -- Each Serial class and instance has a list of supported values: - ``BAUDRATES``, ``BYTESIZES``, ``PARITIES``, ``STOPBITS`` - (i.e. ``serial.Serial.BAUDRATES or s = serial.Serial; s.BAUDRATES``) - these values can be used to fill in value sin GUI dialogs etc. -- Creating a ``Serial()`` object without port spec returns an unconfigured, - closed port. Useful if a GUI dialog should take a port and configure - it. -- New methods for ``serial.Serial`` instances: ``open()``, ``isOpen()`` -- A port can be opened and closed as many times as desired. -- Instances of ``serial.Serial`` have ``baudrate``, ``bytesize``, ``timeout`` - etc. attributes implemented as properties, all can be set while the port is - opened. It will then be reconfigured. -- Improved ``__doc__``'s. -- New ``test_advanced.py`` for the property setting/getting testing. -- Small bugfix on posix with get* methods (return value should be true a - boolean). -- added a ``__repr__`` that returns a meaningful string will all the serial - setting, easy for debugging. -- The serialposix module does not throw an exception on unsupported - platforms, the message is still printed. The idea that it may still - work even if the platform itself s not known, it simply tries to do - the posix stuff anyway (It's likely that opening ports by number - fails, but by name it should work). - - -Version 2.0b2 4 Oct 2003 ---------------------------- -- Added serial port configuration dialog for wxPython to the examples. -- Added terminal application for wxPython with wxGlade design file - to the examples. -- Jython support is currently broken as Jython does not have a Python 2.2 - compatible release out yet - - -Version 2.0 6 Nov 2003 ---------------------------- -- Fixes ``setup.py`` for older distutils - - -Version 2.1 28 Jul 2004 ---------------------------- -Bugfixes: - -- Fix XON/XOFF values [Bug 975250] - -Bugfixes (posix): - -- ``fd == 0`` fix from Vsevolod Lobko -- netbsd fixes from Erik Lindgren -- Dynamicaly lookup baudrates and some cleanups - -Bugfixes (examples): - -- CRLF handling of ``miniterm.py`` should be more consistent on Win32 - and others.

(Currenly Win32 only, ignored on other - platforms) - - -Version 2.3 19 Jun 2008 ---------------------------- -New Features: - -- iterator interface. ``for line in Serial(...): ...`` is now possible - Suggested by Bernhard Bender -- ``sendBreak()`` accepts a ``duration`` argument. Default duration increased. -- win32 handles \\.\COMx format automatically for com ports of higher number - (COM10 is internally translated to \\.\COM10 etc.) -- miniterm.py has a new feature to send a file (upload) and configurable - special characters for exit and upload. Refactored internals to class based - structure (upload and class refactoring by Colin D Bennett) - -Bugfixes: - -- [Bug 1451535] TCP/serial redirect example "--help" -- update VERSION variable -- update wxSerialConfigDialog.py and wxTerminal.py compatibility with - wxPython 2.8 (Peleg) -- Check for string in write function.
