Constructor Detail

PortChooser

public PortChooser(javax.swing.JFrame parent)

Construct a PortChooser --make the GUI and populate the ComboBoxes.

Method Detail

itemStateChanged

public void itemStateChanged(java.awt.event.ItemEvent e)

This will be called from either of the JComboBoxes when the user selects any given item.

Specified by:

itemStateChanged in interface java.awt.event.ItemListener

getSelectedName

public java.lang.String getSelectedName()

getSelectedIdentifier

public gnu.io.CommPortIdentifier getSelectedIdentifier()

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] ap)

A test program to show up this chooser.

makeGUI

protected void makeGUI()

Build the GUI. You can ignore this for now if you have not yet worked through the GUI chapter. Your mileage may vary.

populate

protected void populate()

Populate the ComboBoxes by asking the Java Communications API what ports it has. Since the initial information comes from a Properties file, it may not exactly reflect your hardware.

commPortNameToID

public static gnu.io.CommPortIdentifier commPortNameToID(java.lang.String portName)

finishGUI

protected void finishGUI()
