I'd recommend embedding Python (http://www.python.org).  I've used the JPython
interpreter embedded in various things, and I understand the CPython engine is
easy to embedd as well.

The Python slice facility makes processing APDUs very easy indeed.

Is this PC/SC or the drivers though ?  The Towitoko PC/SC driver for Win32
claims to release the serial port & only claim it 'on demand'.

Hello Naomaru,

NI> Now the problem is loading the created .bin file to Cyberflex Access.

Have a look at www.javaworld.com and search through for past articles
on smartcards & opencard.  There's an article written by Rinaldo
DiGiorgio at Sunlabs about loading smartcards from Java.  It will give
you the general idea, as it uses Schlumberger as an example.

I'd also recommend you look at later examples.  Also take alook at
http://www.platform7.com/press/eventsa.htm which has a paper & slides
I presented at the Gemplus Dev Conference about the smart card URL
programming interface and the Brazil project.  This is technology
Rinaldo & others at Sunlabs have created to make accessing smartcards
easily from any browser, or any software for that matter.  It uses
HTTP as a protocol for remote access, and supports the Schlumberger
cards.  You can get
an evaluation license for the software by emailing
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  It's written totally in Java.

Finally, I'd suggest you also look at JPython (www.python.org) for accessing smartcards
from Python using opencard.  I've used this combination quite
succesfully.
