javax.comm Needed By Arduino?

Do I need the Java(tm) Communications API for Linux (meaning various javax.comm files which are separtely downloadable as an communications API from Sun....comm.jar, javax.comm.properties and so on) in order to build the librxtxSerial.so for 64 bit implementation?

Do I need to remove or change the import statements for gnu.io.* from various *.java files if I am building the Arduino pde software?

Thanks

From what I can glean from the RXTX website, it sounds like it should work on 64 bit Linux. If you're using RXTX, you don't need the Java Communication API from Sun, nor do you need to change the import statement in the Java source.
