Hey,
I'm followed/copypasted this arduino tutorial about java Arduino Playground - Java
I setted everthing right for my system(the port and my classname is different) but I'm getting a error on the line:
serialPort.addEventListener(this); //line 69
I'm getting this error in netbeans
method addEventListener in class gnu.io.SerialPort cannot be applied to given types;
required: gnu.io.SerialPortEventListener
found: serial.reader.SerialReader
reason: actual argument serial.reader.SerialReader cannot be converted to gnu.io.SerialPortEventListener by method invocation conversion
the code I have right now is
package serial.reader;

import gnu.io.SerialPort;

};

private InputStream input;

private OutputStream output;

/**

*/
public void initialize() {
CommPortIdentifier portId = null;
Enumeration portEnum = CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifiers();
// iterate through, looking for the port
while (portEnum.hasMoreElements()) {
CommPortIdentifier currPortId = (CommPortIdentifier) portEnum.nextElement();
for (String portName : PORT_NAMES) {
if (currPortId.getName().equals(portName)) {
portId = currPortId;
break;
}
}
}
if (portId == null) {
System.out.println("Could not find COM port.");
return;
}
try {
// open serial port, and use class name for the appName.
serialPort = (SerialPort) portId.open(this.getClass().getName(),
TIME_OUT);
// set port parameters
serialPort.setSerialPortParams(DATA_RATE,
SerialPort.DATABITS_8,
SerialPort.STOPBITS_1,
SerialPort.PARITY_NONE);
// open the streams
input = serialPort.getInputStream();
output = serialPort.getOutputStream();
// add event listeners
//Getting error on this line,
serialPort.addEventListener(this);

*/
serialPort.notifyOnDataAvailable(true);
} catch (Exception e) {

}
}

}
I don't have any super java powers (yet)
kind off beginner with java
I'm using netbeans on a Mac OSX 10.7.2 (OSX Lion)
can someone tell me whats wrong with this line and how I can fix it?
