Java Manager - HP iPAQ hw6900 User Manual

JAVA Manager

Java manager enables you to install, view, select, run, and delete MIDlets and/or MIDlet suites on your
HP iPAQ.
MIDlets are Java applications that can run on mobile devices. Your HP iPAQ is a Java-enabled device.
MIDlets are written for the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP) of the Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition
(J2ME). This is a technical specification, and does not influence the type of application that can be called
a MIDlet. For example, MIDlets are business applications, communication programs, games, and
utilities. You may see references to both MIDlets and MIDlet suites. These terms are often
interchangeable.
A MIDlet is a program that conforms to the MIDP specification, while a MIDlet suite normally consists
of .jad and .jar files and is a collection of one or more MIDlets bundled together. Some MIDlets may be
distributed as .jar files, but also use .jad files if both have been supplied since jad files contain additional
data about a MIDlet suite. In actuality, MIDlets are always distributed as MIDlet suites, whether they
contain a single application or a collection of applications.
