IRemotePortDevice Interface

This interface is implemented by a remote port device.

Declaration

interface IRemotePortDevice extends ${IDevice} {
    // Properties
    ${remoteHost}: string;
    ${remotePort}: number;
    ${connectionTimeout}: number;
    ${connectionAttempts}: number;
    ${login}: string;
    ${password}: string;
    ${domain}: string;
}

public interface IRemotePortDevice : ${IDevice}
{
    // Properties
    string ${remoteHost} { get; set; }
    uint ${remotePort} { get; set; }
    uint ${connectionTimeout} { get; set; }
    uint ${connectionAttempts} { get; set; }
    string ${login} { get; set; }
    string ${password} { set; }
    string ${domain} { get; set; }
}

struct IRemotePortDevice : IDevice
{
    // Properties
    _bstr_t ${remoteHost};  // get set 
    unsigned int ${remotePort};  // get set 
    unsigned int ${connectionTimeout};  // get set 
    unsigned int ${connectionAttempts};  // get set

IRemotePortDevice Properties

remoteHost

remoteHost: string;

string remoteHost { get; set; }

_bstr_t remoteHost;  // get set

Name or address of a remote host this port is associated with.

remotePort

remotePort: number;

uint remotePort { get; set; }

unsigned int remotePort;  // get set

Port number on a remote server (specified by remoteHost property) this port is associated with.

connectionTimeout

connectionTimeout: number;

uint connectionTimeout { get; set; }

unsigned int connectionTimeout;  // get set

Connection timeout, in milliseconds. When the local port is opened by application, an attempt to establish connection is made for a given number of milliseconds before returning error code.

connectionAttempts

connectionAttempts: number;

uint connectionAttempts { get; set; }

unsigned int connectionAttempts;  // get set

Number of connection attempts before giving up.

password

password: string;

string password { set; }

_bstr_t password;  // set

User password for authentication on the remote server. For security reasons, this property is write-only.

domain

domain: string;

string domain { get; set; }

_bstr_t domain;  // get set

User domain name (optional) for authentication on the remote server.

Example

The following code snippet illustrates the creation and configuration of a remote virtual serial port:

// The following function gets the name of the remote server
// and its port number, as well as user credentials,  creates a virtual serial port, connects
// it to the server and returns the port name
function connectPort(remoteHost: string, remotePort: number, login: string, 
        password: string, domain: string) : string {
    var library = (IRemotePortLibrary) new ActiveXObject("hhdvspkit.SerialPortLibrary.1");
    var port = library.createRemotePort();

    port.remoteHost = remoteHost;
    port.remotePort = remotePort;
    port.login = login;
    port.password = password;
    port.domain = domain;

    return port.devicePath;
}
