it seems that CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers() returns null Enumeration. That right the hasMoreElements() function does not find ports...

I've the same problem, the enum returns a Null. A trace shows that a search for a library

</opt/SUNWut/lib/libutdevctx.so>

returns a 'not found'. It seems that only the <libLinuxSerialParallel.so> need this library.

Know anybody what function this <libutdevctx> has, and from where I can get this file?

My OS is SUSE Linux 9.3.

Follow mistakes we can exclude:

-the java sample programm is tested and run under W2K

-the serial device /dev/ttyS0 is tested an works bidirektional
