Virtual COM Port (VCP) service manages drivers to connected VCP devices - typically USB <-> UART converters.
|
|
|
|
In practice, you rarely care about specifics of the devices; you only want uniform interface for them all.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
VCP service does just that, after you register drivers for various VCP devices, you can just call VCP::open
|
|
|
|
and the service will load proper driver for device that was just plugged into USB port.
