Hey guys,

I'm looking for some help in a project I'm undertaking. I have an AVR micro-controller sending data to my pc via the COM port. I want to write a c++ program, that will listen out for any data coming from the COM port and to write that to a MYSQL database.

What I need help with is the figuring out how my c++ program will constantly listen to the COM port. My knowledge of c++ is quite poor so to speak. Any help would be great!

Cheers
