Description-en: Cross-platform, Serial Port library written in C++ (devel)
A cross-platform library for interfacing with rs-232 serial like ports
written in C++. It provides a modern C++ interface with a workflow
designed to look and feel like PySerial, but with the speed and control
provided by C++.
.
The upstream package name is serial. The Debian package is named
cxx-serial to avoid a name conflict.
.
Serial is a class that provides the basic interface common to serial
libraries (open, close, read, write, etc..) and requires no extra
dependencies. It also provides tight control over timeouts and control
over handshaking lines.
.
This package contains the development files (headers, unversioned
so-librarie, pkg-config .pc file) and also some developer documentation.
