Hi Bob,
Can you confirm that we are now using both the Sun commapi and the new
SerialIO packages or are we just using the new SerialIO
I just did a CVS update/compile and it looks like it uses both. It all seems
to work on my PC when I put the commapi bit back. Is this expected
behaviour?
The MS100 class is the only one that uses the Serialio. It tries to reference the Serialio class; if that succeeds, it uses it. If that fails, it falls back to using the javax.comm. All of the other serial adapters (LocoBuffer, EasyDCC, Lenz/Atlas, NCE, C/MRI) only use the javax.comm stuff. So on Windows, both should be present; on anything else, just the javax.comm is needed. (Serialio would work for the MS100 on other platforms, but its not really needed, and we don't have either a license nor the code)
