The Developing Mobile Phone Applications With J2ME Technology course provides students with hands-on experience with developing mobile applications on the Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition (J2ME platform) using Connected, Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) and the Mobile Interface Device Profile (MIDP). The course provides information about MIDP 1.0 and MIDP 2.0 specifications, concepts, and capabilities.

There are currently no scheduled dates for this course. If you are interested in this course, request a course date with the links below.

who can benefit

Students who can benefit from this course are Java technology developers, designers, and architects, who want to develop mobile applications for the MIDP. In addition, this course will benefit architects who design mobile technology solutions, and Java migration technologists, who need to leverage existing code to the new platform.

prerequisites

To succeed fully in this course, students should be able to:

	Be able to create applications using the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE platform)
	Have passed the Sun Java 2 Programmers Certification Exam or have more than two years Java software development experience
	Have reviewed the CLDC and MIDP documentation that is located on the http://java.sun.com/j2me/docs/ web site

skills gained

Upon completion of this course, students should be able to:

	Explain the J2ME platform architecture and the role of configurations and profiles
	Build basic MIDP applications (MIDlets) and incorporate enhanced multi-media into MIDP-based applications
	Create and implement event-driven user interfaces using the high-level and low-level application programming interface (API)
	Implement local data storage on devices using the Record Management System (RMS)
	Create applications that use network-based information
	Describe the MIDP 2.0 security enhancements
