Hi there, have been searching for any solution of my problem at this forum but haven't found any so hope you will assist (if this problem was discussed somewhere before i will appreciate for pointing this topic to me).
I've been given a task at my work to develop a driver, that can create virtual com ports, to which third-party apps can be connected as if it was a real com port, but all data must be received by my app. And vice versa, all data I'm sending from my app must be directed by this driver to this virtual com port.
So, here is my question. Is it possible to create a virtual com port which can be accessed by two applications in such way that incoming data from one app was redirected to the second app? Or will I need two drivers? The first one is virtual com port driver which is connected with third-party app and the second one is the core driver which is connected to my app - in such case I will only need to set data exchange between these drivers.
I've never dealed with drivers' development, so any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks!
