Access USB smart card reader with Java
807580Jun 22 2010 — edited Jun 23 2010I'm working on a Java app that will need to read a smart card from a USB smart card reader. The reader comes with a C++ API but not Java. I'd like to be able to interface with the smart card reader purely with Java, since then I could have a Java webstart app and user's wouldn't need to install anything but that. Windows installs the drivers for the reader automatically.
Basically I'm look for a way to interface directly with the driver from Java. Is this possible?
