Class SerialDataMonitorThread

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Thread

com.pi4j.io.serial.impl.SerialDataMonitorThread

All Implemented Interfaces:

Runnable

public class SerialDataMonitorThread
extends Thread

This implementation class implements the 'Serial' monitoring thread to poll the serial received buffer and notify registered event listeners when data is available.

Before using the Pi4J library, you need to ensure that the Java VM in configured with access to the following system libraries:

• pi4j
• wiringPi

This library depends on the wiringPi native system library.
