Remarks

Example

CComm *pComm;
// pComm is a pointer that can point to a CCommSerial, CCommClient, or CCommServer instance

if(commTypeSelection == SERIAL)
{
    int comport = 2;
    CCommSerial *pSerial = new CCommSerial(commPort);
    pComm = pSerial;
}
else if(commTypeSelection == CLIENT)
{
    string svrIP = "192.168.1.25";
    int svrPort = 8001;
    CCommClient *pClient = new CCommClient(svrIP, svrPort);
    pComm = pClient;
}

pComm->Open();

// Now the app can call pComm->Send to send data without regard for whether it is serial or TCP/IP.
