That is the latest copy. It is still a good reference for getting started and contains some more advanced topics that are relevant to newer JC versions. I am not sure if a book on connected edition is relevant considering there is no real application that I am aware of. You may be able to get cards that support JC 3 classic though.
The book is available on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Java-Card-Technology-Smart-Cards/dp/0201703297
It is well worth the $33.

  • I am looking for Java-based technology for building nice looking Web apps

    Hi everybody,
    As written in subject - I would like to use some nice web technology, based on Java. I would like to build good-looking web pages. I have tried a bit of Dojo or JQuery (generally this is Ajax I think). Could someone point me what is the relation between Java application/technology and presentation layer of the application? For example, could I easily build nice Web application only with JSF? Or should I connect it with some Ajax-based library?
    If Ajax is best solution - what are your favourite Ajax implementations?
    What about other technologies: portlets, EJB? Thanks in advance for some info - even general.

    Could someone point me what is the relation between Java application/technology and presentation layer of the application? For example, could I easily build nice Web application only with JSF? Or should I connect it with some Ajax-based library?Java/JSF is entirely server side.
    JS/Ajax is entirely client side.
    In JSF world there are several component libraries with builtin ajaxical (and skinnability -this also covers "nice looking" as you say) support, such as RichFaces and IceFaces. Give their homepage and demo's a look.
    If Ajax is best solution - what are your favourite Ajax implementations?I myself have jQuery on #1.

    Just remember that this book is for JC 2.1 not 2.2.1. I have still found this book good for explaining the fundamentals of Java Card development. It just doesn't cover all of the JC 2.2.x API's.

  • Post Issuance of Java card applets

    Dear All,
    Can any one let me know where i could find some documentation on Post issuance of smart card applications in detail.
    I'm working with gemXpresso 211 PK IS, which supports Open Platform 2.0.1 version.
    Appreciating your quick reply
    Thanks and Regards

    Ph: (O) 91- 040 - 3000401/501 ext : 2166
    http://www.cmcltd.com

    You mean to say gemXpresso 211 PK, is OP 2.1 compliant(not 2.0.1),
    but in any case, OP2.1 implements CALC(Card and Application Life Cycle)
    who has some responsibility of post issuance management. Although there
    are not many references of post-issuance in OP2.1 specification(11 to
    be exact) and not what information you are looking for. I would say the
    vendor(GemPlus in this case) should be able to answer any specific
    questions you may have for the process of Applet post-issuance.
    You probably already have gone through the generic post issuance
    Applet description with respect to Java Card in Zhiqun Chen's
    "Java Card Technology for Smart Cards"(P.46).
    I afraid this is not the answer to your question perhaps, but I
    suspect if there really is any specific documentation on Applet
    post issuance and likely chances are it would be a vendor dependent
    process.

  • Java Card Please Help!

    Please I am doing my final year project on secure mobile application using Java Card Technology.
    I need to write and an application that can send SMS on a SIM card to another SIM card with the same application. The application will have a server side which manage the storage of messages and at the same time communicate information to the client on the SIM remotely. I am suppose to use wi-fi (TCP/IP) for transmission.
    Can anybody please give me ideas and possible working codes and simulators.
    I mean step by step procedure of how to start.
    THANK YOU.

    Hi,
    I found the following resources helpful when starting out in JavaCard.
    JavaCard documentation:
    Java Card Technology for Smart Cards: Architecture and Programmer's Guide (Book)
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/javacard/index.html
    JavaCard specifications:
    http://java.sun.com/products/javacard/specs.html
    Global Platform specifications:
    http://www.globalplatform.org/specificationview.asp?id=card
    Communication between SmartCards and terminals is based on ISO 7816 part 3 and 4 so if you�re completely new to the SmartCard environment it may be helpful getting an overview regarding these specifications. Unfortunately these specifications are not free, they�re available from.
    http://www.iso.org/iso/en/ISOOnline.frontpage
    Software:
    The basis for all development is the JavaCard and Java Development kits.
    Java Development Kit
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
    JavaCard Development Kit
    http://java.sun.com/products/javacard/dev_kit.html
    Full installation instructions can be found in JCDevKit_User_Guide.pdf which is contained in the JavaCard Development Kit distribution.
    Several companies provide IDE�s that will aid you in developing and deploying applets to JavaCard.
    For example:
    Aspects Developer
    http://www.aspectssoftware.com/devtools/index.html
    There are others out there as well. You may need to also buy physical sample cards; however, the IDE�s usually have simulators built in.
    Hardware:
    To interact with physical cards you�ll require a PCSC compatible card reader.

    Hi Trajano,
    There are books available today. The McGraw Hill book came out weeks ago
    and I believe the APress book is out too. However, these books are
    probably out of date due to the fact that the spec wasn't finalized when

  • Book For Java Card

    Hello,
    I need to learn Java Card technology and need a book to buy, can you suggest me any good book about it? What i saw at amazon they have really old books. Which of them would you suggest me?

    I was lucky enough to meet Zhiqun Chen and speak to her. Her book was the starting point I had for learning Java Card. It is still quite relevant today as well even though it targets JC 2.1.1. You can use this to get a solid understanding of Java Card and then look at the JCDK documentation for newer versions to see what API's there are etc.

    * Standardized Biometrics API
    Please direct your comments on this draft at [email protected] Feedback received before December 15th will be considered for the final version of the specification. For more information on the Java Card Platform Specification v2.2.2, Public Review Draft, refer to the release notes on http://java.sun.com/products/javacard/RELEASENOTES_jcspecsp.html

    The Installer and the Applet Deletion Manager are implemented in the JCRE and GlobalPlatform. On-card the Card Manager manages the content management, communication and the related security. JCRE specifies how it has to handle installation and deletion, but leaves room for different implementations. To the outside world, on a GP card, the Installer/ADM is the Card Manager with a specific AID.
    Installer and ADM are optional. For instance a Java Card Static product does not need an Installer/ADM.
    JCOP cards have the Installer/ADM fully implemented. It uses the GP functionality. The CM has to be selected to install or delete a package/applet.

  • NFC for Java Card

    Hi guys
    I'm a new one with NFC, especially for the field that I'm investigating right now, Java Cards. Hence, would you mind to help me with the initialization? I mean what am I supposed to begin with (name of documents, materials,...)?
    Any of your help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance
    Jason

    Jason,
    I'm not sure what you mean by NFC integrated Java Card. Could you give me the name of the document you downloaded from Global Platform?
    Java Card knows about the transport type between itself and the reader: contact (T=0, T=1 : ISO/IEC 7816) or contactless (T=CL : ISO/IEC 14443). But that is all; a Java Card applet should not know or care about the lower transport layers.
    As for the relationship between GSM, UICC and NFC, have a look at the document "NFC Stepping Stones" from SIMAlliance: http://www.simalliance.org/en?t=/documentManager/sfdoc.file.supply&fileID=1308660607647
    EDIT:
    For more on STK applets (GSM), read the Gemalto introduction to the SIM Toolkit: http://developer.gemalto.com/home/technology/sim-toolkit.html
    The best standard for you to start with is probably 3GPP 43.019.

    Hi,
    Iam new to Java Card Technology, Can any one explain me how to compile a java card program using eclipse.
    and from where do we need to pass apdu commands, how to check the output(data which is written into smart card), etc...
    Thanks,

    For Eclipse there is are the famous JCOP Tools. To get these you need to contact your local NXP sales representative. The tools itself are free of charge. There is also an open source Eclipse Java Card tool. Forgot the name.

  • Smart Card and  Java Card (URGENT)

    Dear everyone.
    I have purchased a card reader (which is supposed to be java card compatible).
    I have 2 problems.
    1. I just wonder if i can use a Smart Card generally available. Do i need to have a special card for Java Card??
    2. Can i use card kit to interface to the reader/writer? How do i install my applets??
    Please reply soon.
    Thank you very much.

    I tried to execute the OCF samples.
    this code
    OpenCard.services = com.ibm.opencard.factory.MFCCardServiceFactory
    did not give any trouble
    this code
    OpenCard.terminals = com.ibm.opencard.terminal.pcsc10.Pcsc10CardTerminalFactory
    gave some troubles. May be because iam not using ibm terminal(card).
    And also, i think the OCF samples will not work anyhow, because the Reflex reader is not OCF complaint.
    So the following may not work
    OpenCard.services = com.slb.opencard.Cyberflex
    I have most imp. questions to ask you now.
    1. What card should i purchase and from whom (along with some software if necessary)?
    2. What is the procedure for reading/writing to that card using the Reflex reader.
    Please help.
    Thanks
    Goldy.

  • Seeking Help for Guidance in developing a product using JAVA CARD

    Hi,
    Welcome to the wonderful world of embedded Java development!
    Sijukj wrote:
    1. how i am supposed to create applets to get the student id of particular student whose id is already registered in the database?The first step is to download the Java Card Development Kit (JCDK) from the Sun website (along with the related documentation/specifications). If you plan on using your code on a real card, I would recommend JC version 2.2.1 or 2.2.2. If it is sufficient to run your applet on a simulator (as a proof of concept or for assignments) with no intention on running on real hardware you could go for JC 3.0.2 and use the supplied simulator. This version of JC does not have commercially available cards as of yet.
    Once you have the applet coded and installed on your card, you would personalise the card for the card holder. This means loading card holder specific data into your application. This may also involve registering the smart card ID with the student in your database.
    2. how to install them into the smart card?The procedure for loading and installing applets is outlined in the Java Card documentation (available with the JC development kits from Sun) and the GlobalPlatform card specifications (available from [http://www.globalplatform.org]). You can look into some open source tools for doing this (GPShell and the Java Card Development Kit).
    3.what are the commands i am supposed to follow if other than APDU commands?This depends on what you are trying to achieve with your applet. If you want interoperability you could implement a standard like ISO7816 or IOS24727. This is a lot of work so you may just want to implement the proprietary you require for each operation you need (e.g. set student ID, get student ID etc).
    4.i found there is APDU commands but what do that each CLA,INS,p1,p2,Lc,le..commands used for?how can i use them in my creation of applets.i found the command varies for certain requirements.These are defined in ISO7816 part 4.
    The CLA byte gives information on the command you are sending such as secure messaging, command chaining, ISO or proprietary command
    The INS is the instruction or command you are trying to perform
    P1 and P2 are parameters to the command. These may not be required for each command but are able to be used to convey further information to the applet.
    Lc is the length of the data field you are sending (e.g. for a PUT DATA command this would be the amount of data you are sending)
    Le is the length of the data you expect to receive back from the card. If this is absent you do not expect the card to return any data, 0x00 means send all the data you have left (up to the limit of the response APDU)
    5.if possible please help me with a small example so that i will start developing it.You can find example code in the Java Card Development Kit. There are a wide range of examples there that can help you get started.
    Cheers,

  • Does Java Card require a USB CCID-compliant smart card reader?

    Hi experts,
    Does Java Card require a USB CCID-compliant smart card reader? I'm currently working with PC/SC usb token and it requires usb CCID-compliant smart card reader, which seems very inconvenient for my clients and I'm wondering if Java Card has the same issue? (I'm thinking about switching the project to Java Card)
    Any help will be much appreciated!
    Z.Zen

    Hi,
    You will still need to install drivers for some card readers to function correctly. I know some work out of the box on Windows and OS X (10.5+ at least) ships with the pcsclite CCID driver from the Muscle card project. When I view my reader in Windows device manager the Manufacturer is "USB CCID Compliant".
    The only real difference between what you are doing with the USB CCID token and Java Card is that the card and reader are separate in the Java Card option where as the USB token has the reader and chip in one package.
    Cheers,
    Shane
