Hi Miguel, Thank you for your advice; No problem for the OS; my Os is windows. Do you think that the GPRS connexion depends on the GPS device? The javax.comm.*, as far as I know, offer 3 connection types: serial,parallel and using sockets.
In my case; I have two parameter for the connexion: the APN and the port number. Perhaps, should I deal with the APN as an URL and the connexion will be set up transparently?!!!! Miguel Montesinos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> a écrit : Hi, Just one note. Javax.comm.* only runs on Solaris and Windows. If you need Linux, Mac OS X, ... support, you'll need other "plug-ins" for original Sun package. Here you have one GPL project we're using at gvSIG[1] I've not used AT commands and GPRS communications in Java, but have done in C++. One advise: think in all possible problems, link failures, coverage problems, ... They'll certainly happen ;-) Regards [1] http://www.rxtx.org/ --------------------------------- Miguel Montesinos Director Técnico PRODEVELOP C/ Conde Salvatierra, 34 - 10 46004 Valencia.
