- IRDA (USB) - send, read
- Posted by norti on June 9th, 2005
Hi all,
what is the simplest way to send/receive some data (for example one number -
integer) from one to another computer using IRDA (USB) driver. DDK's demo
application which send/receive data using IRDA works with Sockets. I would
like to write it without Sockets, etc. but on the lowest level using
commands: createfile, deviceIOcontrol, ...
The problem is where can I find the information how to set up IRDA
connection using deviceIOcontrol (which IOControlCode use), which parameters
I must set, how to send/receive the data (also deviceIOcontrol or
write(read)file) ? Any suggestions are welcome, thanks to everyone.
Best regards,
norti

Sockets are the lowest layer of IrDA accessible from user mode.

Ok, but is it possible to write the app using deviceIOcontrol, createfile,
closehandle, etc.
to communicate with IrDA ?

IIRC no. The IrDA link layer is in irda.sys, and the upper edge of this
component is TDI. So, sockets is the lowest user-mode API for it.
