BOOL EnableCommNotification(idComDev, hwnd, cbWriteNotify, cbOutQueue)
Parameter Description
idComDev Specifies the communications device that is posting notification messages to the window identified
by the hwnd parameter. The OpenComm function returns the value for the idComDev parameter.
hwnd Identifies the window whose WM_COMMNOTIFY message posting will be enabled or disabled.
If this parameter is NULL, EnableCommNotification disables message posting to the current win-
dow.
cbWriteNotify Indicates the number of bytes the COM driver must write to the application's input queue before
sending a notification message. The message signals the application to read information from the
input queue.
cbOutQueue Indicates the minimum number of bytes in the output queue. When the number of bytes in the out-
put queue falls below this number, the COM driver sends the application a notification message,
signalling it to write information to the output queue
Return value 0 indicates:
– an invalid COM port identifier
– a port that is not open or
– a function not supported by COMM.DR
≠ 0 function is successful
