Hey guys,
Currently I am Java programmer (applications and applets for PCs), but I want to try something new, and so I am instersted in developing apps for cellphones. Hope you can answer my questions:
1) MIDP 2.0 does support animated gifs and allows me to access the phones memory (for loading files) when the phone supports this, right? Whats the name of the API that allows me to access the phones memory?
2) Whats the best free development platform for MIDP 2.0 at the moment? Currently I use Eclipse, but I guess I need something else for mobile development.
3) Are there any websites with tutorials that give me a lil introduction to MIDP? Any links are welcome.
Just started to look at this myself, though not fully understanding it yet, managed to get a MIDP helloworld class compiled and .jar created just using javac / command line so far, but haven't managed to get it working on the device yet, need to look into preverifying so i'm told.
2) J2ME toolkit perhaps, free with registration on java.sun.com, explanation of it is in the link in reply (3), might be worth a look first to see if it's what you're after.
3) http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/W-P/ce/networking/article.php/c7911/
If anyone has any further info, please respond.

Hi,
I have Microsoft Visual basic NET ( just learning it ), I am upgrading from Visual Basic 6.0 .
I wish to develope a little application for my Jas Jar.
So please advise me as a complete newbie.
1) Is there a good book or other any documentation on step by step 'How to build' WM5 applications ?
2) I assume i can use MS Vb Net on Wm5 operating system ?
3) Using MS Vb Net, how do I build Wm5 applications ?
thx
This is something I wrote a while back when asked a similar question:

I come from years of Symbian PDA owning/development, and I had several languages available, besides C++: OPL (Basic-like), PersonalJava, J2ME, MidletPascal, Python, Jython, m-Shell... all of them for FREE!
What are the alternatives on a WM machine? Can I only develop in C++, or have I some FREE alternatives?
do you mean languages or programming envioments ?
embedded visual studio is free if you mean envioments

both.
I just found info about the embedded visual studio you talk about. I see c++ allows API access,but VB cannot. Any workaround?
I also found WABA and EWE: for the first, site states "you can write native code by modifing WABA sources"; I guess it means writing additional C++ code?
for the second, it says it allows accessing native functions: does it mean you can use EWE to start/receive calls, send/receive SMS, access COM port,...?
The following languages/interpreters are used nicely on HTC Typhoon:
1. Jython 2.2 for Java 1.1.8 SE (along with Personal Java CE 1.1 and the JDK runtime/library);
2. Perl CE 5.8.0 from the Rainer-Keuchel portings;
3. nScriptm HPCARM 0.104 by Nakka/ S/K;
4. Rebol CE 1.5.5 by Carl Sassenrath.
An advanced application manager such as SPHelper is needed to solve the pointing device stuff ...
There is a Smartphone patch for Python CE from one of the developers at SF.net released in March I did not try yet, (perhaps someone interested will) ...

thanks, that's very interesting, especially Jython: Is Java 1.1.8 supported by all HTC devices?
Yupp, it sure is ... but Sun Microsystems stopped releasing it alltogether to the end user, R.I.P Personal Java (this was the actual compatibility with CE) ...
The link is:
isiam.blogspot.com (I`ve made it as described) ...

that blog is just the reason for which I asked about PersonalJava compatibility
I use PJ compatible PDAs since several years (SonyEricsson p800, Motorola a1000...), and I'd like to continue being able to use PJ applications even when I'll pass to Windows PDA!
I guess you can add Python CE v2.5 to that list as well now ...
It`ll be working fine on every single WM version existing, although I did not test`em all:

Dear developers,
I am desperately looking for a way to get the Cell-ID (Telephony tower ID) under Windows Mobile 5.
I came across three options, but none worked for me:
1. RIL_GetCellTowerInfo -
According to the documentation, this is working only on Windows CE, but not on Windows Mobile (?)
2. TAPI ? -
Could not find any Cell-ID related information in the documentation...
3. AT-Commands ?
a. Which AT command?
b. Will this be different between different Modem vendors?
Many thanks - Paz

Hi,
yaSSL has released an Alpha of the CyaSSL Java SSL Provider for the Android Platform. This can be installed alongside the existing Apache Harmony provider and can be used through the javax.net.ssl Java API package. By using this provider, Java developers can use familiar syntax and API calls of Java to gain the speed and size advantages that the CyaSSL embedded SSL library offers. By using CyaSSL on Android, you can reduce the overall image footprint by 500k to 600k.
Being in the Alpha stage, this provider currently only offers client functionality. If you want to give this provider a try, please download it from the yaSSL website.
www [dot] yassl [dot] com
Instructions for installation into the Android Platform can be found in the README file included with the download. We look forward to your feedback! Please keep in mind that this is an alpha release. Please contact yaSSL at info (at) yassl (dot) com if you need support.
