Any links to docs for the terminal?

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I am working with a Java application. Now I am going to integrate a payment terminal that takes chipbased an dmagnetic cards. It is OPOS based. <br />
<br />
1. What would be the best way to integrate it?<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;JNI?<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;Make a Web service out of the payment terminal program and access it that way from the Java part?<br />
<br />
2. Where does the OPOS thing come in? I know there is JPOS. Is it working to go through JPOS instead or can I just skip the xPOS stuff all together or does that require the termina to expose a none POS based API?<br />

   JNI?

Integrating OPOS based payment terminal with Java application

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.
