Allow connection to TPM simulator on arbitrary port

[lucasbuschlinger]

Hi,

I don't know how contributions work with this project, so I thought: let's just open it up as an issue.

(Talking about the TSS.Java, as I use it)

The Problem:
A TPM simulator can be run on a user-specified port. And thus, connection to local TPM simulators should be possible to do the same.

Solution:
This can be achieved by adding a version of localTpmSimulator() in the TpmFactory Class, which gets a port as a parameter and passes it to TpmDeviceTcp(host, port) constructor (line 25).

I'd really appreciate this. If you want, I could also simply open up a pull request.

Thanks and best regards,
Lucas

Hi Lucas,

You can connect to an arbitrary end-point supporting the TPM simulator's protocol using the "remoteTpm" method. The only additional thing you may need to do is to issue tpm.Startup(TPM_SU.CLEAR) command to "turn on" the simulator.

Hi,

Right, thank you! I somehow missed that, so sorry for bothering you,
