I really don't think you want to use javax.usb, because the protocol for the ZigBee device(s), at the USB level, is almost certainly more than you want to take on. If I'm assuming correctly, the ZigBee device is supposed to provide a slow-transfer wireless connection, so assuming the native Linux drivers work, you probably can talk to your remote device/system using the java.net package. (I assume talking to a remote system and/or device over the ZigBee wireless network is what you ACTUALLY want to do, even though you are talking about the ZigBee itself). However. If I'm wrong, and you really do want to talk directly to the ZigBee, then like I said; you can. Remove the native Linux drivers (you can "force" claim, see the FAQ or search the mailing list). Then claim the appropriate interface(s), open the right pipe(s), and start talking to your device. The ZigBee, that is. > > tks again for helping me to move forward. > > john > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
