I have to start to develop with Java and SmartCards (microprocessor
asynchronous T=0). I need to access smartcard chip through the
navigator. I have downloaded the Java Communications API (javax.comm)
and have started to test. I have seen about OpenCard and have read
about. My sc readers are PC/SC compliant but my doubt is that if I use
OpenCard, what do I have to install in any client? Opencard library and
PC/SC drivers.

If I use Java Comm API I just have to install "win32com.dll" in each
client to be able to execute my Java PlugIn.

I am not trying to start a discussion about Java API vs. Opencard. I
know that using Opnecard I will be standarised with all advantages it
gives but this advantage is going to cost a lot in performance and
requeriments in client machine?

I mean, I am not asking about technical aspects of opencard but about
the way I will execute the applets to access through the navigator to
smartcards.
