Where can I find an example of reading from and writing to the TINI Board's serial ports?

The following program demonstrates how to use the Java Communications API on a TINI board to read and write characters to a serial port. Since the TINI uses the CommAPI for its serial ports, you can also look at the sample programs included with the CommAPI.

import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.OutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.TooManyListenersException;

import javax.comm.*;

 * them to the specified serial port, and echo any characters returned.
 * Modeled after the SimpleRead and SimpleWrite sample programs included
 * with the Java Communications API distribution.
