unix compatiblity

perdesiz · 01-23-2004, 02:52 AM

I wrote a c code on linux platform. The code communicates with a specific device via serial port with RS232 protocol. How can I adjust the program as it can be used on UNIX as well? For example the serial port device can be reached by /dev/ttyS0 in linux,
but what is the situation in UNIX?

on hp-ux 11 I've got...

INTERFACE Built-in RS232C = /dev/tty0p0

but it could be different again in IRIX, AIX etc.
