Getting wrong serial-port names from bluetoothdevice (c#)
- by wurlog
To get all avaliable Serialports from the system i use the following command.
SerialPort.GetPortNames
It works fine for the mainboard serial port, but with the bluetooth device i get the wrong portnames.
For Example: Instead of COM7 i get sometimes COM70 or COM7ö. Its always 1 letter to much.
any suggestens?
PS: I am using newest Visual Studio Express in Windows 7
PPS: The dirty hack to cut the last letter didn't work because i don't know which one is the bluetooth serial port (with various bluetoothstick or devices it changes the number of the comport) and after trying various sticks i reached COM10, ergo COM100 or COM10f
