This is how I add and use RXTX in Eclipse for Win32 Projects, there are probably other ways but it works for me. [1]

  1. Copy RXTXcomm.jar, rxtxSerial.dll and rxtxParallel.dll files to the lib directory of your project
  2. Under Project | Properties | Java Build Path | Libraries
  3. click Add JARs... Button
  4. Select the RXTXComm.jar from lib directory
  5. Jar should now be in the Build Path
  6. expand the RXTXComm.jar entry in the list and select "Native Library Location"
  7. 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
