I guess your issue is not being able to access the JDK installation in order to add the necessary libs and jars? The best solution would be to get your sysad to install getenv and javax.comm in the appropriate JRE bin and lib directories.
But I have, in the dark past on Windows, had success in putting dll's in the system32 directory, or, presumably, other commonly searched directories. If adding the lib's directory (note: not the lib itself) to your PATH and/or LD_LIB_PATH variables doesn't work, then this technique may not work either. I do know that you can put the javax comm.jar in your CLASSPATH, but it needs a properties setting that is usually in: jre/lib/javax.comm.properties so you may be scrod. You can always install your own JDK and do with it as you will. MS [email protected] wrote: > Hi, > Thank you for your message; I was able to get the jar file working.
