The serial device, I can not open, as long as another application open.
I would like to tell the user which application to use the device.
I suspected that there is no api.
Solving complex care.
I just do not know where to look for it.
Serial ports are exclusive devices, one app at a time . Tell the user you can’t open the port, and if they want to use your app, close the app they started which has the port open. Dont tell the user which app, just for them to close it.
