Fixed RFID Reader User Guide
Microsoft® .NET™ Support
The reader supports applications based on the .NET Framework
1.0, 1.1, 2.0 and
4.0.
The reader uses Mono open source software to provide support for .NET
applications deployed on the Linux operating system of the reader.
Java™ Support
The reader comes with a JDBC driver you can use to create applications that writes
data directly from the reader to a remote database.
For more sophisticated Java development, the reader supports the open standard
OSGi service-oriented architecture. This architecture allows system administrators
to install, uninstall, enable, and disable system services (also known as bundles)
without having to reboot the reader each time.
To use OSGI, download packages
from osgi.org
.
Execute Java Applications
To execute a Java application on the reader, use this command:
$JAVA_HOME/bin/java myJAVAClass
Execute .JAR Files
To execute .jar files, use this command:
$JAVA_HOME/bin/java myApplication.jar
When you create a .jar file, you need to include manifest files:
•
The manifest needs to include an attribute called “Main-Class” to specify the
application’s entry point (for example, Main-Class: MyJavaClass).
•
If the executable .jar needs to reference other .jar files, specify the files in the
manifest file using the “Class-Path” attribute.
Enable the Java Just-In-Time Compiler
To enable the Java just-in-time (JIT) compiler for maximum performance, use this
command:
$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -jit java -jar MyJar.jar
