Indeed, to firmware upgrade ; we don't need to patch barry tools. All is
already supported.

Nevertheless, we have to write a little tool that reads and parses ALX
files (it's only XML files).

Sample :
ls WINE/Program Files/Fichiers communs/Research In Motion/Shared/Loader
Files/9500-v4.7.0.78_P4.0.0.98/*.alx

The first file to read is Platform.alx ; it's rather simple to
understand ; you can install all ".cod" files (content into java
directory) if your device supports it.

Sample ;
                  <fileset Bluetooth="True" Java="1.0">
                          <files>
                                  net_rim_bluetooth.cod
                          </files>
                  </fileset>

If your device supports "Blutooth", you can install this .cod file.



In my todo list, I have added this little XML tools... but not the time
yet !

Nicolas
