Re: [ercp-dev] which parts of eRCP are compliant with CLDC / MIDP
Hi Gustavo,
Great, this could perhaps help JavaME developers on Mac OS X.
I would be very happy if I could compile a eSWT Midlet on my Mac and using Eclipse MTJ!!!
This not possible today, because neither Netbeans 6.5 or Eclipse MTJ 0,9 support eSWT on Mac OS X

Currently, Nokia are supporting eSWT midlet development through the Nokia SDKs.
This works ok if you are using MS Windows XP, but for Mac OS X there is no support for the Nokia SDK.

Today when I develop JavaME applications on my Mac I am using Netbeans 6.5 and instead of Nokia SDK I am forced to use Netbeans Mobility Microemulator Plugin.

I think it also would be great if the MTJ-project could look at the microemulator and try to get eSWT
support through it. 

Regards,
Ove

Hi,

My name is gustavo and i'm one of MTJ committers. One of the features that we just added to MTJ is the library support. With it, it is possible to distribute libraries with MTJ that can easily added to a MIDP project. The library is distributed as a JAR file (inside a library plugin) with some additional metadata and when the project is build it is packed with the final MIDlet suite JAR. This feature simplifies the life of the developer to use external JARs on the MIDlet project.

 

Currently we are not distributing any library with MTJ and we are now evaluating some options to be included on our next release.

I note based on eRCP wiki that it is already possible to use eSWT with MIDlets (http://wiki.eclipse.org/How_to_use_eSWT_with_Midlets). I was wondering if there are other parts of the code that depends only on CLDC and could be packed as a library on MTJ. i also saw a xml parser, but I'm not sure if it builds against CLDC.

If we are able to distribute some libraries with MTJ that comes from eRCP, that will make it easy to MIDP developer to use them and also distribute them with their MIDlets.

Do you guys think that this make sense?

Regards,

Gustavo

PS.: can someone also forward to me the eRCP project cvs configuration? I couldn't find on the project website
