C++ send data serial port Arduino

Question

I'm writing a C++ application (for Windows 7) and I need to send some data through the serial port for an Arduino. I found some code snippets googling, but most of the code it's outdated. Which libraries should I use and where can I found a detailed explanation with examples? Thanks for the help

@code0 I searched on the official board/forum first, but most of the code is for Linux OS — sciamp-dev

Libserial: https://github.com/crayzeewulf/libserial/

It is an excellent library for serial port communications with C++. You'll find some easy to use examples in the examples folder on the git repo.

However, if the task gets too complicated I would recommend using Arduino's libraries ie. SoftwareSerial to make your task easier.
