[Gpg4win-devel] Directly talking to scdaemon

[Jan Mosig]

Hello everyone,

I've got a little side project here which tries to configure smart cards
programmatically (via Java). For this I thought it would be nice if I
just connect to scdaemon and send it the necessary commands.

But how to do this correctly?

I tried to connect via TCP to the port it listens on. The connect
attempt succeeds but I do not get any response from the daemon if I send
a command like SERIALNO.

I also tried via Unix domain sockets but the connect attempt fails with
"connection refused".

Strangely, even if I delete the S.scdaemon socket file,
gpg-connect-agent is still able to talk to scdaemon and the file does
not get recreated.

So: How to connect and talk to scdaemon the right way?

Thanks in advance

Jan
