FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
All Supported Operating Systems
FIX:
There is no mechanism in the Progress 4GL to change the settings of a serial port used via the INPUT FROM or OUTPUT TO statements.
When the serial port is opened, Progress will use the default settings for the ports as set by the operating system.
- On UNIX, the serial ports settings are usually set using the stty command. For more information, refer to your operating system documentation.
- On Windows, the default serial port settings are set in the Windows Control Panel.
