COMSTAT

The COMSTAT structure contains information about a communications device. This structure is filled by the ClearCommError function.

typedef struct _COMSTAT { // cst

DWORD fCtsHold : 1; // Tx waiting for CTS signal

DWORD fDsrHold : 1; // Tx waiting for DSR signal

DWORD fRlsdHold : 1; // Tx waiting for RLSD signal

DWORD fXoffHold : 1; // Tx waiting, XOFF char rec'd

DWORD fXoffSent : 1; // Tx waiting, XOFF char sent

DWORD fEof : 1; // EOF character sent

DWORD fTxim : 1; // character waiting for Tx

DWORD fReserved : 25; // reserved

DWORD cbInQue; // bytes in input buffer

DWORD cbOutQue; // bytes in output buffer

} COMSTAT, *LPCOMSTAT;

Members

fCtsHold

Specifies whether transmission is waiting for the CTS (clear-to-send) signal to be sent. If this member is TRUE, transmission is waiting.

fDsrHold

Specifies whether transmission is waiting for the DSR (data-set-ready) signal to be sent. If this member is TRUE, transmission is waiting.

fRlsdHold

Specifies whether transmission is waiting for the RLSD (receive-line-signal-detect) signal to be sent. If this member is TRUE, transmission is waiting.

fXoffHold

Specifies whether transmission is waiting because the XOFF character was received. If this member is TRUE, transmission is waiting.

fXoffSent

Specifies whether transmission is waiting because the XOFF character was transmitted. If this member is TRUE, transmission is waiting. Transmission halts when the XOFF character is transmitted to a system that takes the next character as XON, regardless of the actual character.

fEof

Specifies whether the end-of-file (EOF) character has been received. If this member is TRUE, the EOF character has been received.

fTxim

If this member is TRUE, there is a character queued for transmission that has come to the communications device by way of the TransmitCommChar function. The communications device transmits such a character ahead of other characters in the device's output buffer.

fReserved

Reserved; do not use.

cbInQue

Specifies the number of bytes received by the serial provider but not yet read by a ReadFile operation.

cbOutQue

Specifies the number of bytes of user data remaining to be transmitted for all write operations. This value will be zero for a nonoverlapped write.
