 | Level: Intermediate Kevin L Sally (ksally@ca.ibm.com), Senior IT Architect, IBM
10 Oct 2006 Walk through the steps required to successfully build and test a location-based Java™ Platform, Micro Edition (Java ME) application using the Eclipse SDK, the Java Specification Request (JSR) 179 Location API, and the Sun Java Wireless Toolkit.
In this tutorial
- Installation and configuration
- The Location API (JSR 179)
- Develop a location-based application
- Test the application
Prerequisites
This intermediate-level tutorial is meant for developers with experience developing Java applications using the Eclipse SDK. Because this tutorial is meant to teach you about the JSR 179 Location API, no JSR 179 experience is required.
System requirements
The example application in this tutorial is built and tested using the Eclipse SDK 3.2, the EclipseME plug-in, and the Sun Java Wireless Toolkit 2.5 beta. Together, these technologies comprise the tutorial's integrated development environment, or IDE. You may use your own IDE configuration if you want; just keep in mind that Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) 1.1 and the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP) 2.0 are minimum requirements for the JSR 179 Location API. The Eclipse 3.2 SDK also requires that you have installed the Java Platform, Standard Edition (JSE SDK) 1.5.0.
