Java & RFID Tags by Shamshad Ansari Example 1: serialPort = (SerialPort) portId.
open("SimpleReadApp", 2000) opens COM1 serial p ort identified in the following code segment while ([Link]()) { portId = (CommPortIdentifier) [Link](); if ([Link]() == CommPortIdentifier.PORT_SERIAL) { if ([Link]().equals("COM1")) { [Link]("The port is: " + [Link]()); RFIDTagRead reader = new RFIDTagRead(); } } }
