Some comments on Series 40 5th Edition SDK

hartti | 03 July, 2007 20:30

The Series 40 5th Edition SDK (Java ME, of course, and Flash Lite 2.1) is finally out. Yes, and in case you were wondering, we skipped the 4th edition.

A couple of comments.

This SDK supports the JSR-248 Subset plus a couple of additional APIs, including JSR-177 (APDU and CRYPTO), Web Services, and AMMS.

The SDK has been tested with the following Java ME IDEs

 

  • Eclipse 3.2.2 with EclipseME 1.6.6 or higher
  • Sun NetBeans 5.5 with Mobility Pack 5.5


There are already a few devices announced belonging to this platform. Additionally there are a number of devices with a subset of APIs from 5th Edition, including 2630, 2660, 2760. You could use the 5th Edition SDK to develop applications for those devices, as they support MIDP 2.1 (instead of MIDP 2.0 like in the previous Series 40 SDK, which BTW was 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2). Note also the limited JAR size and heap memory for those three devices!

Read also the release notes document for this SDK. It contains a few additional details on the SDK

Thanks for an excellent emulator with good monitoring features.

However; I am developing J2ME applications which uses Facebook and Google servers, both of which is accessed through https. I got: javax/microedition/pki/CertificateException Certificate failed verification -- this means that Facebook and Google is using a self-signed certificate, I beleave.

When accessing m.facebook.com in the browser, I am prompted for acceptance.
The promt says: ... www.geotrust.com ... Equifax Secure Inc.

Can you build such a feature into the emulator -- please !

The fine emulator! Thanks.

About Java APIs in S40 5.0

funnyca_cn | 07/04/2008, 11:23

Do you know why there are many seperate JAR files under ..\lib (in S40 5.0 SDK) instead of one file including all the classes like the previous version?

Do you think if it is possible to put all these JARs into one package?

Thanks.
