Since there is no TCP over Serial possible, I would assume, no.<br />
MAybe you find an driver, that shows your serial ports as network adapters, and then you use the tcp facilities of java, but otherwise you have to implement an tcp stack in java itself.

Does anyone know if it is possilbe and/or practical to use TCP/IP over a serial link between 2 computers using an RS-232 null modem cable &nbsp;and the javax.comm api to transfer files?<br />
<br />
If its worth doing (rather than using Zmodem or kermit) any pointers or code would be much appreciated

File transfer over a serial port using TCP/IP?

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
