Hi, sendComandApdu(AppletID aid, CommandAPDU cmd) in BasicAppletCardService obviously takes an applet ID. My question is: does this method do applet selection implicitly or does one have to explicitly select the applet before invoking this method? If one has to explicitly select the applet, the AppletID parameter seems superfluous.
Second question: In one of the smart card tutorials it says the select command APDU looks like this: CLA INS P1 P2 Lc Data Le 0x00 0xA4 0x04 0x00 aid.length byte[] aid 0x00 I hope the spacing makes it accross the net. In the JavaCard 2.1.1 API I find no mention of the P1 associated with 0x04. Is P1 containing 0x04 part of the select() command APDU, or not? As an aside, many of the documents dealing with smart cards seem very old, relatively speaking. At the smart card alliance the last update of the ISO standards page was on January 10, 2000. The OCF-1.2 API itself is some years old. I've been told to use JDK1.2.2 to avoid problems. Is it my imagination or is there some stagnation in smart card development?
