I'm making a Java ECG Software which needs to be able to communicate with an ECG through serial communication. However, the java API javax.comm is nowhere to be found. I have searched Oracle but there's no download link whatsoever.

Does anyone know where I can find the API?

I don't care if it's for Linux(Ubuntu) or OS X. I found an old API for windows (which is no longer supported) but it did not work on my 64 bit windows machine.

You can find it with this search : https://www.google.com/search?q=%22comm.jar%22+Index+of However it's probably the same old version you already have.

  • THIS is a viable answer! You will get all sorts of hits, some from the old version but some from the new. Snagged a v 2.0.3 from one of the links it provided. It's absolutely shameful that Oracle makes us resort to such strategies. – Steve Cohen Feb 17 '12 at 22:54

It's been a while since I worked with it (for a credit card scanner/signature pad). I remember using rxtx, though I don't remember if I also used an oracle download. I believe the rxtx implementation was sufficient. Just be aware that mixing 32 bit linux libs with 64 bit linux jvms is a no-no. At a minimum, you'd need a recompile or the linking/loading process of the lib will fail.
