Java Micro Edition and maps

Hello all,
I have recently mashed together a desktop application using swinglabs JxMapViewer. JxMapViewer basically does all the map downloading, rendering, etc for me and lets me concentrate on my application.
Now I wish to port my application to Java Micro Edition, but JxMapViewer unfortunately doesn't work in Java ME. So I need a replacement.
Does anyone know of a vendor independent (as in can load maps from many different servers, google, yahoo, nasa) mapping api that is designed to work under Java ME?

  • Java Micro Edition and Smart Phone Programming

    I have successfully installed Java 2 Micro Edition 8.1 on my computer, and the Micro EditionNnetbeans plugin in.
    I am programming with netbeans.  In order to create a new project, I need to have the
    Java ME Embedded Emulator (Oracle) going on a near-enough virtual mobile phone. I can either
    virtualise my phone entirely, or used a real phone plugged in.
    -Is there a command line tool that comes with my version of micro edition java
    which can generate a JAD file from a completed, manifest-written executable
    .Jar file?
    -Can someone tell me what to do with the emulator to get it running in either mode,
    given that I know all the manufacturing details about my particular Smart Phone?

    It depends on how advanced the midlet will be. If standard components are used, the app should work everywhere, otherwise it need to be tested (it need to be tested always). If You need to write a midlet with Location API You first need to find a device that has this api implemented to test your application and the start writing. One importatnt thing, if a device in it's specification has written that it support Location API it doesn't have to mean that it's supported fully, some functions may not be implemented. As You can see here for instance. If You are not familiar with midlets start with a tutorial for beginners and after finishing try using more advanced APIs.

  • Question about Java Micro Edition

    Hello,
    I am interested about writing a program for PDAs. These seem to be running the Java Micro Edition, so I guess this is a good choice. But what about programming the GUI with the j2me? Afaik, it does not support swing, and the specifications are so full of abbreviations that I do not undertand that I really don't know other than to simply ask here about the possibilities of GUI programming with j2me, is there a "standard" gui library for j2me, or is it device-dependant, and is it possible to install the j2me under windows/linux for developing and testing purposes?
    Help please.. ;-)
    Thanks
    Jan

    thx :) J2ME seems to be very interesting. But zeb is right with the post in the discussion thread for this article, "where to start" is an important questions. So please, sun, make it easier for us to us (hobby-)programmers to adopt J2ME..
    I found this one alternatively:

  • Help in Java Micro Edition SDK 3.0 EA...

    Hi, I am using the Java Micro Edition SDK 3.0 EA version. I have a problem that when i write code to access the RecordStore, it does not seem to work. Plus, for the FileConnection programs, where do i store the accessible file structure on the disk. In WTK, it was under the appdb of the specified emulator, but i dont know the path from where the filesystem is mounted.
    Another problem is that, I want to create a simple Java class in a separate file in the SDK. But, when i right click and select "New" on the project, it only shows options to create MIDlets or MIDlet Canvas files..
    Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks..:-)

    About the file structure in FileConnection, in NetBeans it is in C:\Documents and Settings\[your user name]\j2mewtk\2.5.2\appdb\root
    You can change the root folder if you go to "manage emulators", then in "tools & extensions", click on "open preferences" and then select "storage". I don't know if SDK 3.0 has it too... sorry... I switched to NetBeans because it has more options...
    About creating a separate file, I always did it manually, adding a .java file to the src directory (with notepad, for example). Again with the full NetBeans, right-clicking in the project gives you an option to create a new Java class so you don't have to do it manually.
    About the record store, I don't know, sorry... But I answered 2 of 3! :)

  • I there any dependcy between Java Enterprise Edition and Java standard Edit

    Hi Friends,
    Is J2EE 1.4 uses Java SDK 1.4 or 1.5.Please reply as earlier as possible.It is urgent
    Thanks
    Bye

    Each version of the Java EE platform must be able to run on the associated version of the Java SE platform. So, J2EE 1.4 must be able to run on J2SE 1.4 , Java EE 5 must be able to run on Java SE 5, etc. Note that this doesn't mean a particular implementation of Java EE can't be run with a more recent version of the JDK. For example, the J2EE 1.4 SDK can be run with J2SE 1.4 or Java SE 5. The key is that both the implementation of the Java EE platform and the applications written to that particular release of the platform must write to the corresponding Java SE version API. In other words, neither a J2EE 1.4 implementation nor a J2EE 1.4 application should make use of an API that was added in Java SE 5.

  • Java micro editions problems

    I just installed the latest sdk (again) and all the appropriate packages to build micro programs.
    All my environment settings are correct (I'm almost postive)
    but when I try builing a .java file from the j2me wirlesss toolkit I keep getting the error:
    In order to compile you need to use the full j2se sdk.
    I HAVE IT!!!
    What could be the problem?
    I have reinstalled the wirless toolkit about 5 times now. Please advise.

    its obviously not seeing your SDK...
    have u installed the J2SDK in a non-default place?

  • Java Standart Edition 6 vs symbian

    I noticed that the nokia n8 has Java Micro Edition, but there is no Java Standart Edition. In all android phones installed Java Standart Edition. For Java Micro Edition is the ability to write only small, minor program. When will be added full support for Java Standart Edition? It is necessary for write a serious, large programs and for compatibility android java apps with symbian

    This is more of a developer question than a consumer question.  You may try the Java discussion boards on Forum Nokia.  If you do post there, you may want to include the specific functionality of J2SE that you are missing in J2ME so that more experienced developers can suggest alternatives.

  • Using CLDC Sun Java(TM) Micro Edition SDK 3.0 EA with netbeans

    Hi ,
    has anyone stumbled upon this - I just installed netbeans and Java(TM) Micro Edition SDK 3.0 and am trying to work with the examples of the sdk inside the netbeans , but when I open them I get the message : "Problem - the project uses platform CLDC Sun Java(TM) Micro Edition SDK 3.0 EA", but it was not found. Create platform named like this - I tried to do it , but it doesn't help.
    Is there any way of overcoming this?

    Ok , I found the solution.
    I installed the Sun Java Wireless Toolkit for CLDC ver 2.5.2.2_01 directly (not as part of the SDK 3.0) , then added new platform and a new project configuration
    according to the new platform.
    In case someone else stumbles on that....

  • Bad installation of Java Platform Micro Edition SDK 3.0 - Can't uninstall

    Hi,
    I tried installing the Java Platform Micro Edition SDK 3.0 tonight and it didn't work (I guess the thing doesn't like it when you're running Win7 x64 with the latest JDK for some reason...). Anyways, it installed fine but on first run it got stuck at the nag screen with IOExceptions, etc. and never finished starting. So I decided to uninstall and guess what? I can't uninstall it because it tells me it can't run the uninstaller program since it can't load a win32 dll on a 64-bit machine...
    So I resorted to deleting the folder and running a registry cleaner :/ However, so I can properly clean things up, I'd like to know where else the SDK put files or dlls and which ones.
    Thanks for your help!
    -LordPhoenix

    I'm having exact the same problem, but I'm using Vista x64.
    I tried to uninstall x64 version of the Java SE SDK and installed the x86 version instead, but it didn't help :/
    So could please anyone post a solution to this.
    EDIT: actually I at least managed to uninstall it using the SE SDK x86.
    But still, is there any way to use Java ME SDK on Vista x64?

  • Uninstalling Java (TM) Platform, Micro Edition Software Development Kit 3.0

    Hi,
    I have installed Java (TM) Platform, Micro Edition Software Development Kit 3.0 EA, and now I want to remove it, however, when running the uninstaller I get a message about the "Java ME SDK is running. Please close Java ME SDK window and try again."
    There is no other Java ME SDK running, I have even tried this in Safe Mode, but with the same error message! My guess the problem is that the installer think itself is the Java ME SDK.
    Do anyone know how to solve this and uninstall the ME SDK?
    I'm running Vista business, 64-bit if that helps.
    BR Psy

    It's strange that there is not any related processes. Have you tried to remove sdk related folders from your home?
    Looks like it's platform dependency issue. Actually 64-bit is not declared as supported by SDK.
    http://java.sun.com/javame/downloads/sdk30ea.jsp#install:
    Required Software
    * Microsoft Windows XP or Vista 32-bit with recent service packs
    * Java SE Development Kit - JDK 1.6 or higher
    * Apple QuickTime player (required to play AMR media on Windows)
    I can suggest you to remove it manually from installation dir, <your_user_home>\javame-sdk, <your_user_home>\.javame-sdk and clean up registry.

  • What is the diffrence between  map and map.entry in core java

    what is the diffrence between map and map.entry in core java . where it will be use ful. any one give one example plz.

    A Map contains Map.Entry's
    e.g.
            Map map = new LinkedHashMap(8);
            map.put(new Integer(1), "one");
            map.put(new Integer(2), "two");
            final Iterator iterator = map.entrySet().iterator();
            while (iterator.hasNext()) {
                Map.Entry entry = (Map.Entry) iterator.next();
                System.out.println("key=" + entry.getKey() + ", value=" + entry.getValue());
            }

  • Use java edition and native edition at same time in a single java app

    Hi
    I have a situation where I need to use both versions of berkeley Db at the same time. I have an external library that I use that requires the Java edition and my own code that uses the native version. Unfortunately the source code of the library is not available and I don't want to redesign my program to use the Java edition.
    Some packages in je.4.0.103.jar and db.jar (version 5.1) contain the same naming structure and same classes eg. com.sleepycat.persist.EntityStore. I removed the duplicated packages in je.4.0.103.jar However it seems that the implementation is slightly different between the two version as I get
    java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.sleepycat.persist.EntityStore.<init>(Lcom/sleepycat/je/Environment;Ljava/lang/String;Lcom/sleepycat/persist/StoreConfig;)V
    When I simply had both versions available my code for the native version kept using the packages from the Java edition and the external library kept on using the native version and as a result I got loads of runtime errors.
    So how do I tell them apart. The problem is because both sets of packages have identical names and class names so Java does not know which ones to use. I am using eclipse so maybe there is some option where I can tell certain classes to use certain packages.
    Any ideas?

    Hi,
    We don't officially support using BDB and BDB JE from the same JVM process.
    It's possible to work around this limitation by creating two [url http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/ClassLoader.html] Java Classloaders  that load one of the two jar files. When calling BDB or BDB JE methods, the call must be bracketed with calls like this that cause the correct classloader to be used:
    ClassLoader saveLoader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();
    Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(/* specify correct loader for BDB or BDB JE here */);
    try {
       // do something with BDB or BDB JE
    } finally {
      Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(saveLoader);
    }We are not experts on classloaders and we don't have an example of doing this. We have not done it ourselves, we only know that users have done it.
    I hope this helps.
