Julien Vermillard commented on DIRMINA-34:
------------------------------------------

There is some issues with Sun's JCA 3.0. It broken compatibility with external implementation, using weirdo hacks in the common code.

Extract of http://www.rxtx.org 

# Sun Dec 18 2005 After Sun Javax.comm broke their flexible 2.0 API, removed it and replaced it with an API version 3.0 rxtx can not support for almost all platforms rxtx supports, the rxtx 2.0 release has been hidden and rxtx 2.1 which replaces the API in package gnu.io is being offered to avoid confusion. The rxtx 2.0 support will resume if the design issues are resolved by Sun.

So I wait and see for see if an implementation on Sun's Java Communication API V3 is possibe or I need to switch on the LGPLed rxtx.org API
