Serial ports are often used to communicate with peripheral devices, such as: modems, POS terminals, special printers, etc..

This class can be used to communicate and configure peripherals connected to a serial port under Linux, simplifying the development of applications that need access serial devices.

Detailed description:

This class can be used to communicate with a serial port under Linux or Windows.

It takes the path (like "/dev/ttyS0" for linux or "COM1" for windows) of serial device and checks whether it is valid before opening a connection to it.

Once the connection is opened, it can send data to the serial port, and read answers (reading is only implemented for linux).

The class may also change connection parameters for the given serial device.
