Hai all, I am having a sample code for communicating a sagem biometric finger print scanner through a serial port in windows environment,in which a header file called is existing.Can anybody tell me the necessary and replacement header file to compile that sample code in linux environment.
Thanks in advance.

Type this at the command prompt :

Looks like you'll need to if 0 out some stuff, and go from there ...
Maybe try recompileing your app against winelib:
windows.h contains non-portable M$-Windows only functions. The proper way would be to completely eliminate windows.h and replace the functions declared in there with their posix equivalents.
As far as serial port access is concerned you may have a look at the "Serial Programming Guide for POSIX Operating Systems" which can be found at the following URL:
If you are unable to port the non-portable functions you may also have a look at libwine, which I would consider a more improper way :)

Hai all, Here i want to initialise a timmer by utilising termios structure in process of establishing serial communications( exact replica for COMTIMEOUTS in DCB).can any body tell me how to acheive this? Waiting for your reply's!! With Regards, emb in linux.
Hai all, First of all A Very Happy New Year To All. As i said earlier, I am having a sagem biometric finger scanner code in windows operating system and now I successfully replaced the windows.h with termios.h.I debuged the code with GDB and found that it is getting stuck in Read call. Is there any debugging tools in linux to check my code .My code contains some 20-25 functions.It is heard to judge the error in GDB.I hope i explaned clearlly. Waiting for ur responses...
Thanking you. With Regards emb in linux.
