Re: Getting a PortInUseException trying to open USB Serial Port.



Hi Roger,

I am using the JavaComm API from SerialIO. (Have put
the jspComm.jar and libjspMacOSX.jnilib in my jdk
home).

The Device I am trying to use is the Intellistripe
Credit Card Reader (IS-320), which has RS-232 and
connects via USB Port.

This device does not have a ready-made driver, so I
got the FTDI Driver, and added my device's VendorID
and ProductID, so that it gets recognized.

Thanks,
Rafi SM
