[Gpslib4j-devel] javax.comm -> gnu.io

[Patrick V. <pa...@th...>]

Hi,

I was installing my GPS app on a new machine and it was a pain in the ass to 
get it working. It was mainly because we are using RXTX through the java API. 
So I had to install both RXTX and comm jar files with a properties file.

Since RXTX version 2.1, there is no need of the javax.comm API, but we need to 
use gnu.io instead and the rest is compatible. So we just have to change the 
imports in the code and it works: search "import javax.comm.*" replace 
by "import gnu.io.*".

What do you guys think? Do we do the switch?

Thanks.
