Introduction

What is the Wireless Toolkit?

The Wireless Toolkit is an integrated development environment (IDE) for creating Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition (J2ME) applications, commonly referred to as MIDlets.

This tutorial will provide step-by-step introductions for downloading, installing, and configuring the toolkit. We'll also walk through the basic steps to compile, preverify, and package MIDlets.

To get a better feel for the depth of MIDP 2.0 support, we'll demonstrate the over-the-air provisioning tools to download MIDlets from a remote server. We'll also have a close look at some of the things you can do with the toolkit's security features, such as signing MIDlets, creating certificates, and setting permissions. Finally, we'll briefly cover some of the other features available in the toolkit, including monitoring tools and enhancements to match the MIDP 2.0 spec.
