Answer:
  1. Search for ibmcomm.dll in the wsdd 5.7.1 directories. It might be in:
    C:\Program Files\IBM\DeviceDeveloper\wsdd5.0\ive-2.2\runtimes\win32\x86\max\bin
  2. Copy ibmcomm.dll in the library path. In this case, it was:
    C:\Program Files\IBM\Java142\bin
  3. You may also need to copy ibmcomm.dll to:
    c:\eclipse
