v2.6 [Sep 27, 2015]
- A change in the serial port event handling: to acquire data received from the port, user-side code needs to call the new Read method. The EVT_DATA event does not use the data parameter anymore.
The Read() method may be called from any part of the user-side code, including buttons and timers. If no data is received, the Read() method returns an empty value.
This change is mainly intended to help Excel users with background data reception - Excel may drop ActiveX events (and the received data may be lost) when user modifies a cell or when debugging VBA code step-by-step.
Allows you to spy on all the activity between applications and any serial port.
