Hello,

I'm trying to implement a serial connection with QIODevice (SerialPort). I
would like to parse line by line (each line consists of multiple columns of
data) and for this I found canReadLine().
But as I understand I have to use startTransaction, because otherwise the
buffer will not be used. I'm I correct?

bool QIODevice::canReadLine() const
{
    Q_D(const QIODevice);
    return d->buffer.indexOf('\n', d->buffer.size(),
                             d->isSequential() ? d->transactionPos :
Q_INT64_C(0)) >= 0;
}

So to read a full line, I have to open a QSerialPort and then start a
Transaction. Then I have to wait a little bit (till data is in the buffer)
and then I can use canReadLine. Am I correct? Is there a better way instead
to wait a little bit? Or is it the wrong way to go?


Best regards,

Martin
