[SOLVED]I want to connect using serial port in an Odroid computer

[newman]

Hi,

I am trying to develop an application for Odroid C2, ARM based computer. I have installed Lazarus on it. However I am unable to install my favorite serial port component Sdpo, it is not supported for ARM based installation, only windows and Linux are supported.

Are there any other serial port libraries I can use on ARM devices ?? I have success with C++ based programs but I want to use Lazarus and FreePascal.

Has anybody been able to develop program using Lazarus and the Serial port on the Odroid C2??

thanks
nm

synaser, which is part of synapse,works on arm based computers. I use it on my Raspberry Pi's.

I would recommend synaser. Others can be found here:

There is TvsComPort in Visual Synapse:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/visualsynapse/
It has not been updated for a long time and I don't know it's current status, but CT version which can be downloaded and converted with ct2laz worked fine last time I checked.
