Anyways, not a very good opinion on the Motorola J2ME SDK 2.0 at the moment.
I found that the Wireless Toolkit is the way to go ( and not using the old version I had downloaded a year ago, since some stuff has been deprecated?? ) I downloaded 1.0.4_01 version of the Wireless Toolkit, which sets up much easier than the Motorola SDK ( and I don't have to go look for the jar files for the example so I can run it ) and it even has an image for the i85s that I wish to develop on :) What we have at the moment is some third party software ( no documentation, and not a very quick response time ) to perform interaction with Blackberry devices ( which are not java capable ). This has given us many difficulties over the last year. We expressed to our clients that we wanted to develop on to a java capable device to perform what we are doing now ( a delivery company's interaction with its carriers; notification of pickups, deliveries and such on a 2 way basis). What our current application is doing is generating text files, which the third party software sends out on the Rogers network, which is sent to the pager, the pager interprets this text into the required forms ( I don't know much about that part, third party software and all ) The Blackberry devices send these messages back over the Rogers network, and the server software collects them and drops them down into a directory. Our java software then reads these text files and then parses the information and performs the necessary database interaction. Now we wish to do this all ourselves. What would be the best approach to accomplish this? Would we create some interface through JSP and use the HTTPConnection? That would probably require polling on the part of the person and the phone, which is not 100% desirable. We would rather have the ability to push data to the phone. Is there some basic RMI interface that we could use? (which I know very little about) Or some ServerSocket Input/Output Stream kind of thing ( then I would have to look after parsing stuff and which yuck has no Buffered streams) I could charge forward and start testing these possibilities and go completely the wrong way, which is not what I want to do from the get go. Anyone have any suggestions of what I could/should be doing? > -----Original Message----- > From: Luc Foisy > Sent: Monday, September 23, 2002 12:15 PM > To: JDJList > Subject: [jdjlist] J2ME > > > > We are looking into developing software for a Motorola i85s phone. > > I downloaded the Motorola J2ME SDK 2.0 > Install proceedures indicate to install J2SE 1.4 (which is > already installed) > I run the launch pad to test whatever examples they have > created, and I get the following error > Fatal Error: Verification failed > javax/microedition/midlet/AppContext::createMIDlet@6 > > In the J2SE 1.4 API I do not see any > javax.microedition.midlet information ( which is really where > I am expecting to see it ) > > I went to look at the J2ME downloads, and there is no real > pointers to what I need to download.
