That probably makes sense, but first, does the endpoints string description plugin API help? You can provide IStreamServerEndpointStringParser (defined in twisted.internet.interfaces) plugins to extend the parser for those strings.
Actually, that's the way I implemented this. But I didn't find any hooks for extending the parser, so I manually inserted new items into endpoints._endpointServerFactories and endpoints._serverParsers and added the StringParser to endpoints. Is there a better way? Could you provide me with a link to any documentation? I've already read the tutorial about creating plugins.
There are some tickets filed already for adding some other kinds of endpoints (eg an IPv6 endpoint - http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/4470), but it doesn't look like there's one for serial port, so yea - it would be great if you could file that one.
Fine. Any suggestions for the name of the new endpoint? Best regards, Albert -- Albert Brandl Weiermayer Solutions GmbH | Abteistraße 12, A-4813 Altmünster phone: +43 (0) 720 70 30 14 | fax: +43 (0) 7612 20 3 56 web: http://www.weiermayer.com
