OpenPlatform is now called GlobalPlatform.

I have read this article few years ago, but I am lazzy to read it again in deepth.
After a quick survey it seems it does not talk about the authentication part related to
GlobalPlatform (OpenPlatform).
But I think it is possible to load a capfile with the OpenCard Framework.
In the same way it is possible to load a capfile with the PC/SC Lite and I prefer the solution
using JPC/SC. Indeed OCF is not up to date since few years ago. It is a pity because the design
pattern of the core achitecture and the method to debug the application are very nice.

Moreover the APIs from my students may allow to load a capfile on all the Java Card
(GlobalPlatform compliant or not, and for all the GlobalPlatform version).

To resume, you may use the method of the article but I don't like this solution.
You can also look [1] about the cyberflex.

I hope this can interest you.
