I am using CE 5.0 on X86 hardware with FDTI USB to serial adapters and
everything works great "under normal conditions". However, when I physically
disconnect a USB to serial adapter that software has opened as a COM port and
that is currently being communicated over, then bad things happen. When the
image is ethernet downloaded, an error pop-up with "Device not installed -
free index not found" is displayed. I have searched the shared code base for
this message but have not found it. Any ideas where it is?
Also, when I perform the same test with a standalone image, the application
freezes with no pop-up or other indication.
Ideally I would like to prevent this but don't know how - any ideas?
