Version 1.11 14 Feb 2002

Version 1.12 18 Feb 2002
Removed unneded constants to fix RH7.x problems.
Version 1.13 09 Apr 2002
Added alternate way for enabling rtscts (CNEW_RTSCTS is tried too)
If port opening fails, a SerialException is raised on all platforms
Version 1.14 29 May 2002
added examples to archive
added non-blocking mode for timeout=0 (tnx Mat Martineau)
Bugfixes:
- win32 does now return the remaining characters on timeout
Version 1.15 04 Jun 2002
Bugfixes (win32):
- removed debug messages
- compatibility to win9x improved
Version 1.16 02 Jul 2002
Added implementation of RI and corrected RTS/CTS on Win32
Version 1.17 03 Jul 2002
Silly mix of two versions in win32 code corrected
Version 1.18 06 Dec 2002
Bugfixes (general):
- remove the mapping of flush to the destructive flushOutput as
this is not the expected behaviour.
- readline: EOL character for lines can be chosen idea by
John Florian.
Bugfixes (posix):
- cygwin port numbering fixed
- test each and every constant for it's existence in termios module,
use default if not existent (fix for Bug item #640214)
- wrong exception on nonexitstent ports with /dev file. bug report
by Louis Cordier
Bugfixes (win32):
- RTS/CTS handling as sugested in Bug #635072
- bugfix of timeouts brought up by Markus Hoffrogge
Version 1.19 19 Mar 2003
Bugfixes (posix):
- removed dgux entry which actualy had a wrong comment and is
probably not in use anywhere.
Bugfixes (win32):
- added int() conversion, [Bug 702120]
- remove code to set control lines in close methond of win32
version. [Bug 669625]
Version 1.20 28 Aug 2003
Added serial.device() for all platforms
Bugfixes (win32):
- don't recreate opverlaped structures and events on each
read/write.
- don't set unneded 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 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 currenty 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
