Installation and Deletion Status Reports
5.1 Downloading a JAR file without a
JAD
In Motorola's MIDP 2.0 implementation, a JAR file can be downloaded without a JAD.
In this case, the user clicks on a link for a JAR file, the file is downloaded, and con-
firmation will be obtained before the installation begins. The information presented is
obtained from the JAR manifest instead of the JAD.
5.2 MIDlet Upgrade
Rules from the JSR-118 (MIDP 2.0) will be followed to help determine if the data
from an old MIDlet should be preserved during a MIDlet upgrade. When these rules
cannot determine if the RMS should be preserved, the user will be given an option to
preserve the data.
