Device Handling in C++?

[Rizwan Majeed]

Is there any documentation or help in device handling using C++. If any one has the idea, please share it. Thank you.

Handle how? If my question seems ambiguous then it is because your question is.

hi Sam, I have to communicate with a palm print device to check for a valide palm print. How could I manage to do it in C++ (under Windows & Linux environments), if there is no DLL for the Device. Is there any help about such type of problems i.e. Device Handling in C++ or VC++. If you have any information regarding this topic please let me know. Thanx, Riz.

You say it is a "palm print device"; is it a parallel interface? Do you have documentation of how to do communicate with a palm print device? Does it say anything about "IrDA"?
