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:

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