What do you give as "tty" parameter to enterTtyMode()? You need to pass
the root HWND of your application, or more precisely the HWND returned
by GetForegroundWindow() when your application has the focus.

Ouch. I guess windows doesn't release the mutex that brlapi_readKey had
taken, and thus closeConnection hangs... How do you end the thread?
TerminateThread?
