| RE: [dsdp-mtj-dev] RE: MIDlet template suggestion |

We could integrate the MIDlets templates functionality with the external library one. Each External library
has an ID, which could be specified in the implementation of a MIDlet template
E.P. It would be very useful and I don’t believe it would require a lot
of effort to be implemented. From:
dsdp-mtj-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:dsdp-mtj-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Craig Setera It sounds like there is some general confusion about the templates
function... As described by David and Gustavo, this is not a
"project" template, but a "midlet" (ie. class) template.
On the other hand, if a user wanted to create a "test midlet",
the ability to add libraries to the classpath as part of the template does
sound appealing. On Feb 16, 2009, at 10:41 AM,
hi tomas, on mtj, there is feature called
"externallibraries". this feature provide an extension point that can
be used to provide libraries, such as mobileunit, to the project. those
libraries are shown during the project creation wizard and the user can add it
to the project and are automatically exterd and included on the final midlet
suite jar. maybe the way to implement the use case you suggested is: 1- create an extenallibrary plugin that will encapsulate the
mobileunit library. we already do something like that with the jmunit library
that is distributed with mtj. 2- create a template plugin with all java files / resource
that you want to have on your project 3- create a mtj project preconfigured with mobileunit
library (from step 1) 4- the user will them create a midlet from the template
(that you provide on step 2) so you can provide your developers: 2 plugins that he will
add to the dropins folder and an example project tht he will import to his
workspace. does that make sense to you? there are examples of how to implement both the library and
the templates on mtj sdk and also some documentation of how to do it. do you
think that this cover your use case? i can send you some more examples if it is not clear how to
use the externallibraries and templates. those are all new apis so it is not
complety clear yet to everyone how to use them. :) gep _______________________________________________ |
