Library Features

This java library provides a platform-independent way to access standard serial ports without requiring external libraries, native code, or any other tools. A general feature list includes:

• Platform-independent library deployment (automatically uses correct native library based on current architecture),
• Very lightweight and efficient implementation,
• Enumerates all available serial ports on a machine,
• Returns both a system port description and a friendly device description,
• Configurable ports according to baud rate, data bits, stop bits, and parity,
• Configurable port timeouts (blocking and non-blocking) for both reading and writing,
• Configurable flow control parameters for the serial port (CTS, RTS/CTS, DSR, DTR/DSR, XOn/XOff),
• Ability to read and write raw data bytes directly to the serial port,
• Ability to read and write byte streams via the Java InputStream and OutputStream interfaces,
• Event-based reading and writing capabilities via callbacks,
• Callback notification when:
  • New data is available for reading,
  • All data has been successfully written, or
  • A complete fixed-length data packet has arrived
