hello,
i have started working on a project that will open up a socket to a casecoder and then send data to it. the casecoder accepts ASCII characters (IE. when i connect to it with winsock i would send a ctrl-t to get the casecoder ready to accept what we wish to print, type what needs to be printed, then send with ctrl-m). this is project utilizes java (just started learning for this project) and coldfusion.
in between the casecoder and our webserver we have a serial ethernet converter that is setup with passthrough. with winsock working the converter is working appropriatelly.
my question is this: i am banking that i need to convert the strings to binary for the casecoder to read what i am trying to input, how do i do that? my code does connect and send, but the casecoder does not know what to do with the data. Hope someone has some ideas for me!!!
