Hello everybody,
I'd like to develop an API to ease the usage of a COM port connected hardware. I'm not sure where to start and I have many issues to be solved before I begin with soft coding.
1. Which programming language shall I use and what consequences will it have? As I said, i'd like to offer the API on the windows platfom, typically for the .NET framework.
2. More generally, to what shall I pay attention when dealing with API programming. I've never done such a development. How does it change from other programming type?
3. Any links to tutorial, books, etc. for API development are greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help.
