Release COM port when flash process is finished #37
Comments
The PyFlasher doesn't do a hard reset after flashing on purpose. This was changed about a year ago after discussions in #22. Please see if the reasons stated there make sense to you as well. Note that hard reset and locked COM port are related but not exactly the same. On my Mac for example the serial port is not locked after flashing; even w/o the hard reset. |
I'm not sure if this is my case.

COM port can be used by any other app as soon as Flasher finish his job - without closing it.
