Website Irritations, Debian packages of 1.4.x
Hi! I've seen an announcement of the Java 1.4.x Port quite some time ago which said something about "Debian packages available soon". While I'm sure this was quite some time ago, I: a) Cannot find that press release anymore (on the website) b) Cannot find a Debian package (at least no 1.4.x version) c) Noticed that the website is not really up to date Is the project still actively maintained or am I looking in the wrong places? -- Ralf Hildebrandt (Im Auftrag des Referat V a) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Charite Campus MitteTel. +49 (0)30-450 570-155 Referat V a - Kommunikationsnetze - Fax. +49 (0)30-450 570-916 C is quirky, flawed, and an enormous success. -- Dennis M.

Installing Java Comm Drivers

Installing Java Comm Drivers for Linux
Extract the Solaris version of the comm drivers
(javacomm20-x86.tar.Z) to /java.
Copy comm.jar to
/usr/lib/java/jre/lib/ext/.
Copy javax.comm.properties to
/usr/lib/java/jre/lib. Change the driver line to read
Driver=gnu.io.RXTXCommDriver.
Extract the low-level "RXTX" drivers (rxtx-2.0-4.tgz)
to /java. Make sure you have the version that uses
javax.comm (not gnu.io). This refers
to the packages that the Javacomm classes appear in, not the
low-level driver referred to in the previous step.
Change directory to /java/rxtx-2.0-4 and build the
low-level drivers as root (make sure your system has the standard
build tools installed): make sure JAVA_HOME is set,
then run ./configure, make, and make
install.
Installing Java Comm Drivers for Windows
Extract the Windows version of the comm drivers
(javacomm20-win32.zip) to C:\java.
Copy comm.jar to
/jre/lib/ext/.
Copy javax.comm.properties to
/jre/lib.
Copy the low-level driver (win32com.dll) to
/bin.
Because of the locations these files are installed to, there is no
need to add the drivers to your classpath.
Just FYI. If you set $JAVA_HOME and extract the CommAPI from Sun, The
configure script will place comm.jar and the javax.comm.properties file
in the correct locations and put the correct text in the properties file.
Either method is fine.
The CommAPI documentation from Sun was intended for JRE/JDK 1.1. There
was no ext directory at that time. This often causes confusion with new
java users.
