Installing Java Communications API from a compressed file

Make sure that the SDK or Runtime Environment is installed before you install the Java™ Communications API.

To install the Java Communications API from a compressed file:

Tasks

1. Put the Java Communications API compressed file, ibm-java-javacomm-3.0-0.0-win-<arch>.zip, in the directory where the SDK or Runtime Environment is installed. If you installed to the default directory, this is C:\Program Files\IBM\Java70\. <arch> is either i386 or x86_64, depending on the architecture of your system.

2. Extract the compressed file. The Java Communications API is extracted into subdirectories in the existing directory.

3. Copy the Java Communications API files into the correct directories in your SDK.
   1. Copy lib\win32com.dll to your jre\bin\ directory.
   2. Copy jar\comm.jar to your jre\lib\ext\ directory.
   3. Copy lib\javax.comm.properties to your jre\lib\ directory.

   By default, the SDK is installed in the C:\Program Files\IBM\Java70\ directory.
