Serial COM Port For ARM in Processing - arm

Question

I write a program on Processing Language, to show the number of serial port in DropDownMenu list for Intel chip.
But I am struggling to run the same program on ARM chip.
Can you plz guide me on how do I resolve this issue?
import processing.serial.*; import controlP5.*;
ControlP5 cp5; DropdownList serialPortsList; Serial serialPort;
void setup() {
size(700, 400,P3D);
String[] portNames = Serial.list();
cp5 = new ControlP5(this);
// create a DropdownList
serialPortsList = cp5.addDropdownList("serial ports").setPosition(10, 10).setWidth(200);
for(int i = 0 ; i < portNames.length; i++) serialPortsList.addItem(portNames[i], i);
}
void draw() {
background(128);
}

I don't know about your above program completely but what I understood you are struggling, to show or recognized the Ports of RaspberryPi based on ARM.
For that I just search and got a solution for you. I summaries these steps for you
Update the system
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Install Oracle Java
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-jdk
sudo update-alternatives--config java
select java version "1.7.0_40"
Download & Install Processing
Go to Download \ Processing.org and get the Linux 32-bit version.
tar xvzf processing-2.1-linux32.tgz rm -rf ~/processing-2.1/java
ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/jdk-7-oracle-armhf
~/processing-2.1/java
Install the java Simple Serial connector
Download jSSC-2.6.0-Release.zip and extract it:
unzip jSSC-2.6.0-Release.zip
mv jSSC-2.6.0-Release/jssc.jar ~/processing-2.1/modes/java/libraries/serial/library/
~/processing-2.1/processing
Test Processing’s serial support
// Example by Tom Igoe
import processing.serial.*;
// The serial port
Serial myPort;
// List all the available serial ports
println(Serial.list());
