Personal Java on an HP Jornada 728

Greetings,
I've recently downloaded the Personal Java suite for the strong-ARM processsor (on my HP Jornada 728); the CAB file installed flawlessly but when I try to fire up the vm (using pjava.exe), all I get is a nasty 'cannot execute pjava.exe'. I've installed everything on a CF storage card. Rumours say that it must be able to run on this device ...
can some kind soul please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
thanks in advance and
kind regards

Thank you for your reply -- I feared that I was the only one in this universe having problems with PJ. I managed to install the entire suite finally (it's a bit of a hack though). After a lot of fiddling, I figured out that the following steps actually do install PJ on my Jornada 728 --
1: install the cab file (say "\Storage Card\Program Files\Java")
2: open the cab file again on your workstation/pc and locate two files:
- Wcecom~1.003
- pjava.002
both are located in a "wce211\" subdirectory. Check the two corresponding files on your device, located in \Storage Card\Program Files\Java\bin" and replace them with the two files mentioned above, renaming them to
- wceCompat.dll
- pjava.exe
respectively. If you start pjava.exe, the jvm (sort of) works. Two nasty bugs remain though -- whenever stdin or stdout is used, by means of the System.in and System.out class objects, a 'console' window pops up, the cursor in that window moves accordingly, but no output characters are visible as if both foreground and background colors are set to white.
The other bug is a real showstopper -- when the vm is started from a command line (cmd.exe), a panic dialog shows up, telling (this is verbatim) 'cannot suspend 1024 (more?) threads'. If/when the jvm is started by double clicking a .class file, this dialog doesn't show up.
The silly thing is, I haven't been able to find any article/documentation etc. about this misbehaviour, even after googling myself silly. I found out that PJ-1-1-beta has been superceded by JME2 Personal Profile, but Sun hasn't released a version for the strongARM processor suite yet ... It's driving me nuts.
kind regards

Personal Java VM on WinCE - Problems...

Hello!
I'm trying to get Personal Java to work on my Handheld PC (HP Jornada 720) running with Windows CE 3.0.
The Installation works - but I'm not able to run any other programs than those demos that are delivered with this JVM...
If I try to run a Java app - no matter if it is a .class , .jar - the JVM tells me something like
"Java Error - Cannot find class "<Classname>" "
I compiled everything with an old JDK 1.1.8 - but even a simple "Hello World" program does not work!
The strange thing is, that a Demo Programm delievered with NSIcom CrEme simulating a 3D rubic cube does work!
Does anyone know how I can get Personal Java to work or any FREE alternatives for running Java Apps on WinCE? (I already used NSIcom CrEme - this works fine but it isn't free)
Bye,
DSH

I have same problem as you. Did you solve it?. I�ve installed Personal Java and demos work, but no my java applications. I�ve used all kinds of jdk versions, such as pjee3.1, or jdk 1.1.7, whta is similar, but always the same message. Message you wrote in your message. Neither a simple HelloWorld works fine. So, any help will be appreciated

How to compile my java application for Personal Java??

i write a simple program and want to run it in PJEE.
program is:
import java.awt.*;
public class TestApp {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Frame f = new Frame();
f.pack();
f.setSize(300,300);
f.show();
and i compiled it using JDK1.4
javac TestApp.javathen i want to test it by using pjava
pjava TestAppbut i got a error message:
Error loading class TestApp: Bad major version numberplease tell me what it is mean and how i can debug it, thanks.

hi, all
i have resolved my question by myself.
because:
|-> personal java

jdk1.1 -> jdk1.2 -> jdk1.4
so, i must compile the java file by using jdk1.1.x
:)

JDOM, JDK1.1.8 and Personal Java...

Has anyone succeeded in building a class with JDOM (XML), compiled with JDK 1.1.8 to run on a Personal Java ?
I'm trying to make a class that use JDOM, but I didn't even compile it on a JDK 1.1.8..

Yes. I'm using JDOM extensively on PJava platform. I have recompiled jdom.jar (there were some problems with the version available from the download site for jdk1.1.8), collections.jar (to be in java.uitl package) and crimson.jar.
It works fine.

How Can I get personal java example source?

i want to know how to program with p-java.
How Can I get personal java example source?
and where can i get them?

pjava is pretty much the same as regular java 1.1.x, so you could just look at any java examples. www.javasoft.com has a learning center with tutorials if that's what you're looking for

Problems with porting to Personal Java

Hi all,
I'm currently trying to port a java application to Personal Java to run on the jeode jvm. The application needs certain packages from Java standard Edition, packages like java.util.Properties.class etc. However when I add this package to the core jar of classes for jeode, my program still cannot see it. I keep getting a NoSuchMethod Error on java.util.Properties.setProperties. This method does exist, and I am calling it correctly.
I'm just wondering if anyone has met this sort of a problem with jeode? Also packages like java.lang.object and java.lang.string don't appear in the main jar file for jeode? Does anyone know if this is correct?
Many thanks for yor help in advance,
Shane

I suppose you mean java.util.Properties.setProperty(String, String) ? This API was added to Properties in Java 2, so it is not available in Personal Java. You will have to use put(Object, Object), which Properties inherits from Hashtable.
As a suggestion, try running JavaCheck on your project to find uses of APIs not contained in the pjava spec.

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.

JavaCard applications on SIM accessing personal Java applications

Are personal java applications also applets just like Java Card Applets.
Also i am programming the SIM of the mobile phone which is a Java Card.
How can a Personal java application on the phone communicate with a JavaCard application on the card or vice versa. Please Note that for the user they are similar.i.e. they exist side-by-side on the same menu of the phone with the user having no clue that the application resides on the phone ( a personal java application) or on the card( a javacard application).
Can anyone tell me of some way for one personal java application to access a JavaCard application?
Thanks
SKhan

At the moment there exist no way to access the Java Card / smartcard in a J2ME/personal Java device. Currently we are working in JSR177 on the problem.

Limitations of Personal Java

Hi guys,
could anyone clarify whether Personal Java allows :
1) Dropdown list
(2) Check boxes
(3) Radio button
(4) Menu bar
(5) Buttons with its size & no. limitations
(6) Calendar access
(7) Child window
(8) Vertical Scroll
(9) Horizontal Scroll
(10) Big Droplist within a window
(11) tables with title column
(13) color
(14) 'value' increment-decrement toggle
(15) 'page' increment-decrement toggle.
(16) audio
(17) animation

Don't know what a Big Droplist within a window means. AWT has Frames, Containers, Dialogs, and dropdown lists.There's no ready-made drop down list in AWT, however you can build one.
As for Dialogs and Windows, how many you can use at a time depends on the actual PJava implementation. With minimum level support, you will only be able to have one at a time. SUN's PJava reference implementation has max. support, i.e. you can have as many dialogs and windows as you want. That may not be the case on other vendor's PJava runtimes.

Alex

Personal java and iPAQ

Hi, I am confuse after reading all these stuff about personal java. I want to know, what do I need to do if I want to download personal java on my ipaq that uses windows CE. do I need to download jeode too or not. I appreciate any help.

I don't know if I'd go that far exactly...
I've had the most success with Jeode, but there is also Sun's pjava (beta, and not a full implementation), as well as CrEme: http://www.nsicom.com/products/creme.asp

Personal Java and Jeode??

Once there is no Personal Profile available for Windows platforms, one solution I've heard about is using Personal Java and Jeode VM.
As I can see, Jeode is a very good VM and supports some versions of standards Java versions..and Personal Java is no longer supported by Sun, but it's functional.
Is there anybody who knows wich versions are usable? Looks like jdk 1.1.8..is there one newer?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
Ricardo

There is a certified Win32 (and PocketPC) version of Personal Profile available with IBM's WSDD 5.6 Tech Preview. See:

Linux + Personal Java on StrongArm(iPaq or SA1111)?

I have watched the discussion here, it seems that mostly run the personal java in WinCE, so anybody successfully getting it work in Linux? As my SA1111 or iPaq is running in Linux and want to run with Personal Java with AWT support.
Can anybody help?

This was announced a while back...
The Blackdown Java-Linux Team is happy to announce the availability of
the release candidate 1 of Java2 SE v1.3.1 for Linux/ARM:
Please choose one of our FTP mirrors for downloading:
http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html
Besides the J2RE there's a second file: additional-ipaq-stuff.tar.gz
It contains libraries and other files which are required to run Java
but are not part of the standard familiar distribution (libXp.so,
libXm.so, libBrokenLocale.so, 'standard symbols l' font)
The unmodified J2RE needs about 18m, if you remove one of the two
included VMs (classic green & classic native threads VM) and files you
don't need (candidates are for instance soundbank.gm, i18n.jar
libJdbcOdbc.so, libpreemptive_close.so, libioser12.so, ...), you may
get it down to 12 or 13M. You should be able to save even more space
by removing unneeded classes (e.g org.omg.*) from rt.jar.
* No SDK yet, I didn't have time to run the compiler testsuite yet
(the test-run will take approximately two weeks)
* MouseEvent.isPopupTrigger() and JPopupMenu.isPopupTrigger() are
somewhat useless on the iPAQ as they are bound to the right mouse
button. Any idea for a more sensible trigger?
* The default fonts are too large for the small display
* The default maximum heap size is 64m, you may want to reduce that
with to a smaller value (e.g. -Xmx20m)
* Some stuff is terribly slow (e.g. HTML rendering). If somebody
feels like writing a JIT compiler or porting HotSpot to ARM let me
know...
* No Mozilla plugin yet ;-)
* A small demo is available from http://blackdown.de/~jk/arm/IPAQDemo.jar
