swiftserialportsample's Introduction

SwiftSerialPortSample

An attempt to convert Apples SerialPortSample project over to Swift

The serial port sample from Apple is a simple application written in C that shows some of the tasks required for interacting with a serial port from Mac OS X. It covers IOKit as well as the POSIX commands that are used to find serial ports, open them, change their attributes etc.

As a C program there are a lot of challenges in converting this over to Swift. CoreFoundation is supposedly simple to use from Swift, though I have found a few issues. The POSIX function calls are not very well supported either.

This experiment has been updated to Swift 2.0 and is actually slightly functional.

Issues, Annoyances

ioctl and fcntl aren't useable from Swift as they need varags.

Errors in IOKitPlayground.playground

Hi Daniel! First off, this looks like a really useful project; I'm glad I came across it.

Secondly, I wanted to let you know that when I opened up IOKitPlayground.playground, I got a few errors (screenshot below):
