RE: [dsdp-mtj-dev] Preverification support on MTJ

["Hildum Eric-XFQ473" <XFQ473@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have two questions for multiplatform support:

1. Is it just the preverifier that is the issue, or are there other components we need to worry about as well?

2. Should we ask Sun if the existing PhoneME preverifier can also be released as EPL code within MTJ?

My thought is we must have Windows, Linux, and Mac support in MTJ, the real question is the best way to get there (fast).....

Gustavo,

There are two primary reasons for this functionality:

- Platform support. 
- Easier to call a library than an executable.

I think we should try to cover Windows, Linux and Mac.  At this point, there is a compilation of the PhoneME project's preverifier for the Mac that is shipped with Mpowerplayer.  I'm not sure if it can be found elsewhere.  It might be possible/preferable to allow that preverifier to be used on Mac.  It doesn't solve the "callout" issues, but it does help to meet the platform needs.

One thing we should keep in mind about the current preverifier in EclipseME is that it has known bugs.  I've not had time to go back and address them.  I've wanted to move away from that preverifier, but needed some way to cover the other platforms.
