[lug] Java Serial port programming on Linux

[Riggs, Rob]

http://www.interstice.com/~kevinh/linuxcomm.html would indicate that it is
possible to use serial I/O under Linux with Java as far back as JDK 1.1.x.

Subject: [lug] Java Serial port programming on Linux


Hi all, 

I've been developing in Java on Linux for about two years now. Today I'm
helping a friend develop a small application which will do some heavy serial
port I/O. To my horror I'm discovering that it's possible (although I'm not
sure) that serial port I/O is not supported in Java on Linux (Sun JDK 1.3).
Can anyone confirm this? 

Thank you! 

Bryan
