QSerialPort::pinoutSignals() not working

[EMAT]

Hii,
I am using QSerialPort class for RS-232 Windows based application. When I am trying to read RS-232 pinout details using QSerialPort::pinoutSignals() function after setting RTS to high, values are not changing for DataCarrierDetectSignal,DataSetReadySignal and ClearToSendSignal enums.But it is giving correct value for QSerialPort::DataCarrierDetectSignal value. Is it an implementation problem, or I am something wrong?

//QSerialPort::DataCarrierDetectSignal
if(port->pinoutSignals() & QSerialPort::DataCarrierDetectSignal){
LOG_DEBUG("QSerialPort::DataCarrierDetectSignal is TRUE");
}
else {
LOG_DEBUG("QSerialPort::DataCarrierDetectSignal is FALSE");
}

//QSerialPort::RingIndicatorSignal
if(port->pinoutSignals() & QSerialPort::RingIndicatorSignal){
LOG_DEBUG("QSerialPort::RingIndicatorSignal is TRUE");
}
else {
LOG_DEBUG("QSerialPort::RingIndicatorSignal is FALSE");
}

//QSerialPort::DataSetReadySignal
if(port->pinoutSignals() & QSerialPort::DataSetReadySignal){
LOG_DEBUG("QSerialPort::DataSetReadySignal is TRUE");
}
else {
LOG_DEBUG("QSerialPort::DataSetReadySignal is FALSE");
}

//QSerialPort::ClearToSendSignal
if(port->pinoutSignals() & QSerialPort::ClearToSendSignal){
LOG_DEBUG("QSerialPort::ClearToSendSignal is TRUE");
}
else {
LOG_DEBUG("QSerialPort::ClearToSendSignal is FALSE");
}

Can you demonstrate that you know what those signals are and who is repsonsible for asserting them...and do you undertstand the difference between a DTE-DTE vs DTE-DCE connection? Would you expect those signals to be "asserted", and under what circumstances?
