Aspire :: OSGi Bundles :: Tagsys Medio Reader

This section describes the bundle for Tagsys Medio Reader L100 & L200 (ie HALAdaptor)

Context

The Tagsys Medio Reader L100 & L200 is an industrial ISO 15693 RFID reader.

The Tagsys Reader bundle packages a HALAdaptor for Tagsys Medio L100 & L200 reader attached to the host (RS232).

Building process

  1. Download the vendor library tagsysmedio. Then, transform this jar into a compliant OSGi bundle (you can use the BND tool).
  2. Install in the local maven repository the bundle version of the vendor Java library.
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.tagsys -DartifactId=tagsysmedio -Dversion=1.0.0 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=tagsysmedio-1.0.0.jar
  1. Build and deploy the RXTX bundle (RXTX is a native interface to serial ports in java).
The sources of this project are in the svn repository (trunk/bundles/common/rxtx). Use maven to build this project, the instruction is mvn clean install
  1. You must also build the abstract-reader project. This project contains base classes used by all HAL adaptors.
The sources of this project are in in the svn repository (trunk/bundles/readers/abstract-reader). Use maven to build this project, the instruction is mvn clean install
  1. Finally you must build the tagsys reader project. The sources are in in the svn repository (trunk/bundles/readers/tagsys-reader)
Use maven to build this project, the instruction is mvn clean install

Deployment

The artifacts to deploy are

  • org.ow2.aspirerfid:abstract-reader (Artifact that has the base reader classes)
  • com.tagsys:tagsysmedio (The reader vendor library)
  • org.ow2.aspirerfid:tagsys-reader (The tagsys reader driver)
In Felix use install comand to deploy the bundles.
