Re: xAP COM port interface?

[Kevin Hawkins <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There is an outline BSC Skeleton application that has all the structure
inbuilt to create devices as BSC v1.3 . Thus if your device was mappable
to a few binary, level or text based devcies this could work for you.
You could even reflect the whole serial data as a BSC text device if you
wanted.  I never quite finished it although it is used for example in
the TOM10 connector. If you wanted the source code for this - it is in
VB6 then I can send you it .It works fine... apart from....

There is one potential other issue and that is that we have discovered a
memory leak in Patricks xAP OCX and it is taking a little while to fix,
this causes an increasing memory footprint with every xAP message
received  :-(  but I am hoping we will see a new version soon.
