I need to write an application that amongst other things, opens/closes serial ports and reads/writes from them.
I understand that in the Visual Studio 2005 .Net framework there is a class called SerialPort that handles all this.
I would like to write a class in C# using the beta version of .Net 2005, that handles all the com ports operations using the SerialPort class.
Then I would like to write the rest of the application in .Net framework 2003 (in C#) and use the above class that was written in 2005 as a dll or something...
Can I do this? And if so, how? how do I create a dll (even in .Net 2003)?
If this can't be done, does anyone have any other idea of how to do this?
I would appreciate any help..
Thanks
