Hi,

I'm creating a Phone Dialer feature in my application. No MAPI features - simply to dial the phone given a number. Good old ATDTxxxx commands.

I've written code to use the Windows API, but remember a while back the mention or a unit 'serial.pp' for Linux and a port for Windows. I'd much rather use cross-platform units that start using IFDEF's it my code.

Can anybody confirm if the serial.pp unit for Windows is now part of FPC? Which version: 2.3.1, 2.2.2?

The one mentioned was:

I'm using FPC 2.2.0 which I believe doesn't contain a 'serial' unit for Windows, but no harm in planning ahead for the next FPC release. :)

Regards,
- Graeme -
