Hey guys/girls
This is what I want to achieve:
1. Microncontroller talks to the pc via serial comms
2. The data that gets sent to the pc, must be processed by a program
and then displayed in a GUI inviroment.
My Question(s):
1. Because I want to display the proccessed data in a GUI inviroment, I
want to use java, only reason for that is because I have experience in
programming in java. Is java a good option or not? What are the
alternatives.
2. If getting java to talk with the micro controller via serial comms is to difficult , then I was thinking of rwiting a program in C, that will communicate with the micro and then proccess all the data and store it in a text file. Then i can use java to extract the information out of the text file and then use it in the GUI enviroment. Could that work?
I am just doing research at the moment in finding the best way to achieve my goals, I have experience in programming micro's in C and Assembler. Programming in java, just normal programs where the user can input data ect.
Looking forward to the feedback from you guys!!
Regards
