[Bug 1579781] Re: librxtx-java fails to open /dev/ttyACM0 port!

 

Hi, some mounts ago I wrote a code able to read/write USB port in order to communicate with an Arduino 2560. The code is written in Java. The code works perfectly with Ubuntu 14.04.
Some days ago I upgraded to Ubuntu 16.04 from scratch (completely erasing the OS partition) and I installed the GNU IO library.
I expected to run my code as in the previous OS 14.04 but when I tired to execute my code I noticed a problem. The problem was the inability to access the /dev/ttyACM0 (using the root user and a normal 'dialout' user). 
In order to resolve the problem I tried to update the OpenJDK because Java8 was already installed. During the upgrade I got the bug #1550950.
After this partial upgrade GNU IO was not runnable: the problem was not solved.
I resolved the problem using galternatives and setting for each j* voice the 1081 choice (in each place where it was present).

Please write me if you need more explanation. I am glad to help the
linux community.

  In order to use librxtx-java to communicate with an arduino I have to
  use 1081 alternatives (OpenJDK 8 is 1081). In order to obtain this
  result I have installed galternatives and I have set for each j* voice
  the 1081 choice (in each place where it was present).
