Overview on Java and PDAs

Hi folks,
for a study research project i need to find a good solution for the following simple thing:
i need to develop a java based gui application to run on a pda - possibly a high end device with all the features :-) ..
a year ago we were just running familiar linux on an iPAQ and the arm vm from from sun - which resulted in a very slow program flow... i guess for now that there are (1) much faster pdas and (2) so much better and faster jvm solutions.
where can i get a good overview of the possibilities? which solutions do you all prefer? which operating system to use?
so now where to spend my money on? only a good pda and possibly free software to develope? do i need to invest on software, or are there - good(!) - free ide's?

I think a custom built Hardware based on pxa255 Arm core processor with Linux
on it will be a good solution.
You can put KVM+MIDP or even JVM+JRE can be put on this linux and then you can build your GUI based applications !

Java and PDA's

Hi everybody,
I'm thinking about purchasing a PDA and would like to develop my own apps for it with Java. What are the requirements are for running Java on any PDA? What OS's support Java? How do I get Java onto a PDA? Which PDA's support Java?
As you can see, I've got lots of questions. Any comments/recomendations would be great!
Thanks!

Hi,
short:
there are basically 2 versions of java for pda's, personal java and micro java (J2ME).
The latter seems to grow in popularity since it is configurable for different targeted devices, depending on their capabilities (Memory, Connectivity etc.), and is beeing deployed on a lot of devices, especially smartphones -eg. Motorola Accompli 008, Siemens SL45i etc... - but also the on Palm OS Devices, wireless (Treo) or not (5xx, V..).
If you're gonna use Java on wireless Handhelds or SmartPhones, go for J2ME.
If you need rich GUI's, Sound, Image processing or other advanced features, go for Personal Java if it can't be done with J2ME.
To get familiar with both "Versions":
Personal Java: http://www.sun.com/software/communitysource/personaljava/
J2ME: http://java.sun.com/j2me/index.html

Graphical benchmark for Java (J2ME) phones and PDAs: JBenchmark

JBenchmark measures the performance of Java (J2ME) enabled phones and PDAs, by running 5 small tests, each lasting for 10 seconds:
1. Text
2. 2D Shapes
3. 3D Shapes
4. Fill Rate
5. Animation
Check results and download software at www.jbenchmark.com!

Wow.. i thought I bought a good phone. But reading the JBenchmark for the SonyEricsson T610 wasn't fun at at all. Are other phones really up to 3 times faster? Anyone with experiance from testing with other phones?

Blackberry and PDA Java Applications

Is it possible to use JDeveloper to develop java applications for Blackberry and PDA devices?
A colleague of mine has recently started developing a prototype application using the IDE that is available from www.blackberry.com but it is a "bit clunky" therefore I would like to know if JDeveloper can be used to develop and deploy applications to these devices.
I'd appreciate your thoughts and suggestions, along with any additional resources that you could point me in the direction of that are related to this area.
Thanks in advance for your help with this matter
David

Hi Shay,
Thanks for your reply.
I've had a look at the link that you posted. It appears that JDeveloper will only allow you to create applications for:
Dell-Axim
Siemens Sx56
Hp-2220
that are running specific operating systems.
We are attempting to write applications for a variety of different blackberry devices, not palms.
Have you or anyone got any further information/ideas?
Thanks
David

How to configure the connection between AS JAVA and AS ABAP

Hello,
I have installed a SAP Netweaver 7.3 AS JAVA and I would like to connect this JAVA Instance with 3 ABAP Systems (ECC 6.0) .
On help.sap.com I have found the following instructions: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/3b/0c4b428f96ab53e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
Could you please advise, if the above configuration steps are OK?
Or could you please help me with the exact procedure?
Thank you in advance!
Noemi

Noemi,
I'm not sure how exactly you want to use ABAP and Java so it is hard to answer your question.
The link that you posted describes the steps to configure ABAP as a Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) service provider. As a service provider, the AS ABAP enables you to off-load the authentication of users onto an identity provider. The identity provider enables you to federate identities across domains for Single Sign-On (SSO).
Check the following wiki page for a good overview of all the ways that you could connect to ABAP

How to download Personal Java and how to run the application

Hi,
From java.sun.com, which file has to be downloaded for develpoing the application in personal java.
How to run an application in peraonal java?
If you give me the steps it will be more helpful to me.
I couldn't find the samples for personal java anywhere?
If you give me links for basic samples with source code such as hello world and small games, it will be more helpful to me.
All of my doubts are very basic one.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Nagaraj.

Sun has a beta implementation available for download (http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/earlyAccess/personaljava/) which will allow you to run Personal Java on a MIPS/SH3/StrongARM or XScale device running WindowsCE 2.0 or greater. You can also download the Personal Java Emulation environment (http://java.sun.com/products/personaljava/pj-emulation.html) which will allow you to develop and run personal java applications in a Windows or Solaris environment.
Most JDK1.1.8 compliant applications will run on Personal Java, so a Hello World program would look like the regular.
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello World");
System.exit(0);
You can also purchase a full blown commercial implementation of Personal Java for PocketPC at handango.com. Do a search on Insignia Jeode for Dell. You can use this on any PocketPC/XScale pda.
To run a Personal Java program on Pocket PC. Deploy your jar to the Device and create a shortcut similar to this:
50#"\program files\Java\bin\pjava.exe" -setcwd "\program files\Java\pjtest" -classpath "\program files\Java\pjtest\pjtest.jar" -file "pjtest.testmain.class"
The number is arbitrary, but the paths need to point to the directory where you installed Personal java and your jar/application respectively.

Java with PDA

Hi,
I have two years programming experience in Java, and I now need to write a program that will run on a PDA - most likely a Compaq iPAQ. I need to send input data from the PDA via Bluetooth to other mobile devices, and also parse the information input by the user into an HTML that will be sent to the internet.
It all seems very complicated. Is there a version of Java that will run on the iPAQ? Also, should I wish to connect the PDA to a PC running Linux RH9, is there a version of Java that supports the COM port?
Thanks.

The type of J2ME running on the pocket PC, is called "personal Java" which is based on the "Java 1.1". So basically you'd feel no difference. But ofcourse there are certain things need to consider.

Programming java in PDA

Hi all,
I am very new to java.
I am wondering if it is possible to development simple program (mainly for learning java) in Java at PDA powerd by Palm OS. I mean I actually want to write any pure java program at my pda, and run it in my pda.
The reason about that, I want to learn java, and prototype somethings in java, while I am on the way to my office or back home (2 hrs!!)
therefore, if it is possible, what do I set up for my pda, or is that any simple java IDE for Palm OS?!
thanks a million!

BI Java and BI ABAP -RSPLAN issue

Hi All
We are working with BI system ,using BI 7.0 Java and BI ABAP as separate systems on same host.
Already run the template intaller for BI Java and ABAP integration.
But facing some issue ,when going ot BI ABAP and RSPLAN and clicking the Start Mideller
it is opening a browser as http://host:8000/sap/public/myssocntl?sap-client-XXX
Since this is not correct and it should open BI Java portal instead of ABAP stack page.
Instead this should open a Url like this http://host:5XX00/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/biplanworkbench1/Modeler?
I check on BI ABAP system under SAP Reference IMG -> SAP Customizing Implementation Guide-> SAP NetWeaver _> Business Intelligence-> BI Integrated Planning -> Settings for Starting the Planning Modeler.
There the default Url is BEx Portal Server and the url is
http://host:5XX00/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/biplanworkbench1/Modeler
Can anybody let me know why this is going to ABAP server instead it should go to Java.
Regards
Ajay

Please suggest .
Thanks

How to get return value from java and read by other application?

i want to read return value from java and the other application read it.
for example:
public class test_return {
    test_return(){
    public int check(){
        return 1;
    public static void main(String args[]){
       new test_return().check();
}from that class i make as jar file. How to read the return value (1) by other application?
thx..

If your installer is requiring some process it invokes to return a particular value on failure, then the installer is seriously broken. There are a bazillion commands your installer could invoke, and any of them could fail, which in turn could invalidate the entire install process, and any of them could return any value on failure. The only value that's consistent (in my experience) is that zero means success and non-zero means failure, with specific non-zero values being different in different programs.
About the only control you have over the JVM's exit code is that if your main method completes without throwing an exception, the JVM will have an exit code of 0, and if main throws an exception (either explicitly or by not catching one thrown from below), it will be non-zero. I'm not even sure if that's guaranteed, but I would guess that's the case.
EDIT: I'm kind of full of crap here. If you're writing the Java code, you can call System.exit(whatever). But nonetheless, if your installer requires certain exit codes from any app--java or otherwise--you have a problem.

Problem with java and flex web service

Hi,
I have a basic web service written in java using jax ws 2.1
ri. I need to call it from Flex using the WebService class
Annotations for the java web method :
@WebMethod
public void Login(
@WebParam(name="server") String serverURL,
@WebParam(name=AUTHENTICATE_HEADER,header=true,mode=WebParam.Mode.INOUTHolder<Authenticate Header>
authHeader)
When I try and call the service from Flex , it can't find the
login method and attempts to call it fail. If I set the web service
to RPC based using @SOAPBinding , the method is found but then
there are issues with the authentication header.
What do I need to do to get flex web services communicating
succesfully with java ?
Are there are any known compatibility issues ? Or guidelines
for going about this ?
Any help would be appreciated

well Shay,
i've used JDev's tools to developer and to deploy the web service: the war and ear files are automatically generates you to the end of the process.
I have included all the files java and the compiled classes, but I do not have files jar.
But don't works: if i create only one java class with all code inside then it works fine!!

Problem with java and javaw

Hi,
In running the following simple code, I have gotten different results using java and javaw.
public class Test {
public Test() {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int x =4;
System.out.println("The value is "+ ((x > 5)?6.0:4));
System.out.println("The value is "+ ((false)?6.0:4));
System.out.println("The value is "+ ((true)?99:9.9));
Using java, I get the following results:
The value is 4.0
The value is 4.0
The value is 99.0
But using javaw, I get the following results:
The value is 4.0
The value is 4
The value is 99
Any ideas why this is so?
Thanks for any help.
Gilbert

I used JBuilder to run the following code and Jbuilder uses javaw.
By the way, the correct answer is the one using java right?
