Re: How to configure the JposEntry for Epson's cash drawer for POS?

Hi Chatree,

I'm off today, but I will try to help you this evening if needed. Normally you don't need to worry about cash drawers. You simply 
connect them through the printer...

I have tried to create a new JposEntry for Epson cash drawer without
property like this:

<JposEntry logicalName="CD-100M">
       <creation
factoryClass="jp.co.epson.jpos182.util.EpsonJposServiceInstanceFactory"
serviceClass="jp.co.epson.jpos182.drw.CashDrawerService"/>
       <vendor name="SEIKO EPSON" url="http://www.epson.co.jp"/>
       <jpos category="CashDrawer" version="1.11.1"/>
       <product description="Printer controlled Cash Drawer" name="CD-100M"
url="http://www.epson.co.jp"/>
   </JposEntry>

But I got error like this:

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
       at java.lang.String.lastIndexOf(Unknown Source)
       at java.lang.String.lastIndexOf(Unknown Source)
       at jp.co.epson.jpos182.drw.CashDrawerService.readJSD(CashDrawerS
       at jp.co.epson.jpos182.drw.CashDrawerService.open(CashDrawerServ
       at jpos.BaseJposControl.open(Unknown Source)
       at org.ofbiz.pos.device.GenericDevice.open(GenericDevice.java:47
       at org.ofbiz.pos.device.DeviceLoader.load(DeviceLoader.java:165)

It seem like the CashDrawerService need a JSD property to be specified. But
I don't know the property's name and value for the JSD.
