New to Java cards
542405Dec 8 2010 — edited Dec 11 2010Hi,
I have a project where I need to authenticate a user using a smart card (Will have a symmetric or asymmetric key on the card which is protected by a pin) to authenticate to the application.
I am totally new to Java cards. After some initial googling I have found out the JCOP is the platform for Java applications.
I need some directions as to
1. Where to get the right development tools
2. Is it open source or do I need to purchase any SDK. I found this link on the forum (http://www.smartcardsource.com/sdk.html). It has a java based SDK ( IBM (NXP) JCOP2301-SDK). Do I need this.
3. I have also seen references to simulators, where can I get them?
Thanks
