Using RXTX In Eclipse
From Rxtx
This is how I add and use RXTX in Eclipse for Win32 Projects, there are probably other ways but it works for me. [1]
- Copy RXTXcomm.jar, rxtxSerial.dll and rxtxParallel.dll files to the
- lib directory of your project
- Under Project | Properties | Java Build Path | Libraries
- click Add JARs... Button
- Select the RXTXComm.jar from lib directory
- Jar should now be in the Build Path
- expand the RXTXComm.jar entry in the list and select "Native Library Location"
- Select the project lib directory and apply
Be careful when using System.in.read() and rxtx in win32; It can trip across a known JRE deadlock bug
