# UART Select Example
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
The UART select example is for demonstrating the use of `select()` for
synchronous I/O multiplexing on the UART interface. The example waits for a
character from UART using `select()` until a blocking read without delay or a
successful non-blocking read is possible.
Please note that the same result can be achieved by using `uart_read_bytes()`
but the use of `select()` allows to use it together with other virtual
file system (VFS) drivers, e.g. LWIP sockets.
This example can be used to develop applications for non-blocking read and write from/to various sources (UART,
sockets, ...) where a ready resource can be served without being blocked by a busy resource.
For a more comprehensive example please refer to `system/select`.
## How to use example
### Hardware Required
The example can be run on any development board, that is based on the Espressif SoC. The board shall be connected to a
computer with a single USB cable for communication through UART.
### Configure the project
```
idf.py menuconfig
```
### Build and Flash
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
```
idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
```
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
## Example Output
You can see a similar output after flashing and monitoring the application:
```
...
I (276) cpu_start: Pro cpu start user code
I (294) cpu_start: Starting scheduler on PRO CPU.
I (0) cpu_start: Starting scheduler on APP CPU.
I (10295) uart_select_example: Timeout has been reached and nothing has been received
I (15295) uart_select_example: Timeout has been reached and nothing has been received
I (20295) uart_select_example: Timeout has been reached and nothing has been received
```
You can push any key on your keyboard to see the result of a successful detection by `select()` and subsequent
blocking read (without delay). The following output shows the result of pushing `a` on the keyboard:
```
...
I (15295) uart_select_example: Timeout has been reached and nothing has been received
I (20295) uart_select_example: Timeout has been reached and nothing has been received
I (20945) uart_select_example: Received: a
I (25955) uart_select_example: Timeout has been reached and nothing has been received
