If these changes are made, it would also be useful to have a J2ME build
added to a Continuous Integration server so we can ensure that future
changes do not break the J2ME build (similar to the jdk1.3 build for
JiBX/WS).

Hi Adam,
It kind of depends on what you've done. In your earlier email you
mentioned eliminating reflection usage, ArrayList, Hashmap (though I
think you meant HashMap, right?), List, Iterator, Collections,
Comparator, and Classloader. Some of these are pretty easy to change,
others might take some discussion.
My intention has always been to only make the runtime components J2ME
compatible, rather than the binding code or the various tools. From a
quick search through the org.jibx.runtime classes it looks like there
are a few uses of ArrayList, some of which can be replaced by Vector (or
by a custom class) and others which should just be eliminated in a J2ME
build. Likewise with HashMap. Iterator can be eliminated completely from
the J2ME build, and neither Collections nor Comparator appears to be
used at all.
But that leaves Classloader and reflection. These are hard to avoid, and
would severely limit JiBX capabilities if eliminated (it'd be possible,
but you'd have to do something like hard coding the name of the
generated binding factory class into your application code, since you
couldn't use the BindingDirectory class, and also hard code the kXML
parser into the JiBX code). From looking at the J2ME specifications it
appears that it's only the CDLC profile which requires eliminating
these; the CDC profile allows them (along with ArrayList, HashMap,
Collections, etc.). Is CDLC still so widely used that it's necessary to
support it, rather than just going with the more lenient CDC restrictions?
Unless you've been using the CVS code your changes will probably need to
be revised to match the current code. Why don't you send me a diff for
your changes along with the actual modified Java files and I'll look
them over. If there's a substantial amount of code to be included
directly I'll need to get a contributor agreement from you, but I
suspect it's more a matter of a lot of small changes and that shouldn't
require the agreement.
Thanks for your interest in this area and your work in adapting JiBX to
work for your needs!

Dennis,
I am using JiBX for J2ME. I have found a few issues with the current
JiBX implementation for J2ME. Since I have not found any solution to
my problems, I have changed JiBX source to introduce more extensive
J2ME support.
I would like to give my solutions back to JiBX community, so other
people could enjoy JiBX for J2ME,
How can I get my source code integrated to the next JiBX release?
Should I send it to you? Create a Jira? Check it in directly?
Please help me out with this problem.
Thank you.
Regards,
Adam
