Being a bit of a newbie using your ide (I come from visual studio 2008) I honestly was not putting 2 and 2 together here. My basic problem was that the jserial serial version was the 1.2 and not the updated 1.3 library. Did not quite understand right off the bat that I should download the updated library first and replace the original jserial library with the updates. Anyway, now at least I see what I need. A little background, our company is moving away from windows embedded as a platform, what we seek is an environment, where we are less platform dependent (OS wise), the ultimate goal is write once, and just compile to different platforms (in this case Linux and Windows, not really interested in Android). We are evaluating whether this product will fulfill this wish without too much compromise.
I know, that your comment may be this should be in a separate thread, but I did notice on some of the forums example code downloads, I was not able to download these examples, assuming that I am not a registered Android user (paid) is this correct? If so, your costs are rather inexpensive and we will pursue a proper license.
Thanks for the time.
