BUG: EV_RLSDS Event Does Not Indicate Current RLSD State

Q103636



The information in this article applies to:


  • Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) 3.1





SUMMARY

The EV_RLSDS communications event is documented as indicating the current state of the RLSD (receive-line-signal-detect or carrier detect). However, this event is never set.



SYMPTOMS

If SetCommEventMask() is used to enable the EV_RLSDS event, when GetCommEventMask() is called, the EV_RLSDS bit will always be 0 (zero).



RESOLUTION

To get the absolute state of RLSD, use the MSRshadow. For more information, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Q101417 Accessing the Modem Status Register (MSR) in Windows



STATUS

This will not be fixed in the Windows 3.1 COMM.DRV.
