Members

  • wPacketLength
    Specifies the size, in bytes, of the data packet, regardless of the amount of data requested.
  • wPacketVersion
    Specifies the version of the structure.
  • dwServiceMask
    Specifies a bitmask indicating which services are implemented by this provider.

    The SP_SERIALCOMM value is always specified for communications providers, including modem providers.

  • dwReserved1
    Reserved; do not use.
  • dwMaxTxQueue
    Specifies the maximum size, in bytes, of the driver's internal output buffer.

    A value of zero indicates that no maximum value is imposed by the serial provider.

  • dwMaxRxQueue
    Specifies the maximum size, in bytes, of the driver's internal input buffer.

    A value of zero indicates that no maximum value is imposed by the serial provider.
