Hits: 326
Description: This is the final excerpt in a series from J2ME in a Nutshell, focusing on the delivery and installation of MIDlets.The MIDP specification creates the concept of a MIDlet, defines its lifecycle and its execution environment, and specifies the programming interfaces that a MIDlet can expect to be present on any conforming device. However, it currently does not address in any detail how the user should locate MIDlet suites, how MIDlet suites will be installed on a cell phone or a PDA, and what facilities are to be provided to allow the user to select and launch an installed MIDlet or to remove MIDlet suites from the device.
