Determine if serial port is normal COM or SPP
You are unable to find this information out via the SerialPort class. You would need to do a WMI query.
Doing something along the lines of this may lead you to it
ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("Select *
from WIN32_SerialPort");
foreach(ManagementObject Port in searcher.Get()) {
string a = (string) Port.GetPropertyValue("Name");
}
I haven't got this code loaded so I don't know what further properties you can obtain. However if there was anyway, WMI would be the way to do it.
