[OpenMap Users] GPS emulator, issue with serial port lock

Hi guys,

I’m trying to create a test environment for a GPS-enabled application based
on OpenMap. I’d like to emulate a GPS sensor transmitting coordinates to a
serial port (something like a GPS trace-player). I managed to read and write
messages from and to a serial port on Windows through the comm library, but
I can’t get send messages from the GPS emulator and read it from OpenMap
application, cause it gives out saying the serial port is in use.
Any ideas? Are there better ways to emulate a GPS sensor?

Specs: Windows Vista/XP, Eclipse 3.4.2, jre6, commons-net-1.4.1.jar,
comm.jar, javax.comm.properties, win32com.dll

Thanks in advance,
Mulone
