RS232 communication using Pelles C
« on: May 20, 2013, 07:06:36 PM »
Hi Folks,
              I was trying to communicate my microcontroller with my PC using RS232 protocol. I found the code attached with the post on the web and thought it was pretty good for a start and tried to compile it but I am getting the following errors. Kindly help!!!!! :-X

POLINK: error: Unresolved external symbol '_RS232_OpenComport'.
POLINK: error: Unresolved external symbol '_RS232_PollComport'.
POLINK: fatal error: 2 unresolved external(s).
*** Error code: 1 ***

First off all, there is a simple way to include all project files into a single ZIP file to upload to the forum... ;)
(right-click on the executable name in the right-hand project pane and select "ZIP project files")

That said, as czerny already mentioned, the .c file is incomplete, as a matter of fact, pretty much all the code in it is irrelevant as it is within the huge #ifdef Linux section....

In general, as Pelle's C is a Windows only compiler, you need to look for Windows specific API's to access any serial port, as you do not have direct hardware access to any of the required ports...
