j2mod on Android #3

Closed adryx92 closed 8 years ago

adryx92 commented 8 years ago

Hello, I'm triyng to use j2mod on an Android application through RTU, but I saw that the library needs the jSerialComm dependency that requires /dev/tti* device. So it does't work with a specific kernel driver. I am planning to use https://github.com/felHR85/UsbSerial for the low level communication. Do you have any advice about this?

Thanks

That looks like an interesting way to get UART capability through USB. Do you have any experience of using that library? I'm thinking particularly in terms of stability and QA. In any event, I would be happy to add it to j2mod as we could use it here at 4energy

Now I'm trying to implement UsbSerial istead of jSerialComm for the serial low level commnication...

I too am very interested to use the library j2mod through USB with a converter(type ftdi or prolific) serial. It would be interesting to incorporate in j2mod the library https://github.com/felHR85/UsbSerial or https://github.com/mik3y/usb-serial-for-android.

This looks like it has been resolved by https://github.com/steveohara/j2mod/pull/28 so I'm closing the ticket in the expectation that this works fine and will be available in an upcoming release
