Don't know about forward portability, but the basic question boils down to:
Do you want your Java code to connect directly to the serial port (meaning
always run on the local host that has the programmer attached), or do you
want to always have to start SerialForwarder on the local host and be able
to connect your program from anywhere on the net (modulo firewalls etal).
If your code is always local, use MoteIF or BuildSource. Otherwise you
need SF to be your local intermediary. My personal belief system defines
SF as an unnecessary and confusing annoyance, but YMMV.

Hi. I'm writing a bit of Java code to run on a PC connected to mote
network. I'm currently using TinyOS-1.x, but at some point I'm sure
I'll move to TinyOS-2.x. For my java code, should I connect to a Serial
Forwarder to receive packets, or should I use MoteIF to connect directly?
The documentation in MoteIF would make it seem like it's far better than
Serial Forwarder, and yet everyone seems to be using Serial Forwarder.
Thanks!
