This is an interim release of the jibapi.jar file.  It has been modified to
support the opencard.properties file.  An example properties files is in the
archive.  Also, this version of jibapi.jar will not work correctly with the
examples in jibkit09.  If you want to convert the examples to use the new
api, refer to com\iButton\opencard\terminal\iButtonEventTester.java.  To
unjar jibapi.jar use jar xvf jibapi.jar.

I've attached a diagram of the classes used by the JiBKit when communicating
with the Java Powered iButton.  The diagram is in Microsoft Word 95 format.
If you need a more detailed description of the interrelations of the
packages let me know.
Thanks,

I've attached an applet that is running in the version of the firmware
we recently finished. Basically we have a class in the com.dalsemi.system
package that provides a static method that wraps a native method which
accesses the coprocessor. The 'Big Integers' are represented as byte arrays
with big-endian byte ordering. The length of the byte arrays can be <= 128
bytes

0x6F00 is the SW for an unhandled exception.  It is implemented. Attached is
a small sample applet that uses the Sha1MessageDigest class and should run
fine in your iButton. It's just a version of Sha1Test (from the examples in
the kit) that uses Sha1MessageDigest instead of actually performing the hash
itself

This column is very long. (6,000 words) and talks about my experience in 
developing an applet for the Java Ring.
The ringlet is an ENIGMA machine simulator (three rotors). The column discusses
the ENIGMA, my code, and the problems I encountered while developing the applet.
Note that these sources are a bit later than the ones in the article so they are
slightly different (but in a good way :-)


* Enigma.java -- The ring Applet (ringlet) class.

* Rotor.java -- This class implements one Rotor of the ENIGMA machine.

Lots of guys have been asking about my source code for the site, so here it is
in the two popular formats.  This code isn't fully commented yet, and is still
likely to change before I am finished and happy with it.  We aren't going to
post it again until its pretty much done. There is also some host source on the
website that people haven't found -- follow the source link underneath the
download center.
See Java iButton News Volume 1 for more information about this site.
(Editor's note - I will add these links here shortly (Neale))
