Getting Data from Serial RS232 Port through Custom Form

acarselAug 25 2009 — edited Nov 26 2010
Hi;
We want to design a form for our project to read the weight data from RS-232 port to display the weight data for client machines(Forms 10g). I searched all forums; there are solution ways for 6g ; but we could not figured it out for 10g. We think about using Java; to read data from RS-232 but it seemed too complicated to us.

All we want to do is see the weight solution at form field when we push a button; but we don't want to do extra operations in client machines. We are unable to perform this functionality in Oracle.
So i was checking if any such functionality is available for us to get value from external port.
Please guide me to arrive that functionality with any of available Library files in Oracle or any other Work around ,if any.
