Opens a new logical channel to the card and returns it. The channel is

Requests exclusive access to this card.

Once a thread has invoked beginExclusive, only this
thread is allowed to communicate with this card until it calls
endExclusive. Other threads attempting communication
will receive a CardException.

Applications have to ensure that exclusive access is correctly
released. This can be achieved by executing
the beginExclusive() and endExclusive calls
in a try ... finally block.

Throws:
  • SecurityException – if a SecurityManager exists and the caller does not have the required permission
  • CardException – if exclusive access has already been set
  or if exclusive access could not be established
  • IllegalStateException – if this card object has been disposed of via the disconnect() method

Releases the exclusive access previously established using
beginExclusive.

Throws:
  • SecurityException – if a SecurityManager exists and the caller does not have the required permission
  • IllegalStateException – if the active Thread does not currently have exclusive access to this card or if this card object has been disposed of via the disconnect() method
  • CardException – if the operation failed

Transmits a control command to the terminal device.

a built-in PIN pad or biometrics.

Disconnects the connection with this card. After this method returns,
calling methods on this object or in CardChannels associated with this
object that require interaction with the card will raise an
IllegalStateException.
