[kaffe] Serial Comms

[Ian Brown]

Hi 

I am busy evaluating using Kaffe for an application ( kind of embedded) that runs on Linux on a 486 (PC104) with 32mb Ram and a 32mb Compact Flash for disk storage. I need to update a database with data from the machine that this little device is installed in.

The database update is no problem as I use TCP/IP sockets from the little Linux boxes and I have a single server that actually performs the updates to the database. (I have more than 100 of these devices !). 

In order to communicate with the machines I need to use serial comms and specifically Mark and Space parity. Can this be done with Kaffe ?? Any advice would be most appreciated.
