Bluetooth COM port not detected by the processing application (Mac OSx)

I wrote a processing app that can get the Serial data from sensors. It works well with cables(USB), but when I try to integrate a Bluetooth module, it doesn't even detect the Bluetooth serial port.

The Serial.list(), detects all the COM ports except the Bluetooth port. When I run the same with other Serial Port viewers, the BT Serial COM port gets detected. I am able to get the Serial data through other applications on Mac.

Could this be because of the RxTxComm.jar name filters (tty,..)? If yes, then how to write a script within the Processing code to rename the Serial Port and make the jar file detect the Bluetooth Serial Port?

Change the rxtxSerial.dll within the Processing Serial Library with the "rxtxSerail-2.2Fixed" file that's found in the arduino forum: http://servicios.ried.cl/arduino/

Since Arduino's IDE is based on processing, the same library solves the problem.
