I believe what you say! I'm still struggling with it on Windows to get System.errs output for instance :( Also I got Prosciutto to run, but it shows nothing (all screen blank), yet I know it's running because of some tweaks I speciifcally made to see if it is in control - setCurrent to a Textbox class works at some point. I don't know what's happening with my Canvas thing anyway. If you manage to get system.err / system.out outputs, then maybe you'll find that it is loaded but for some reason it couldn't take control of the screen? I don't know I'm just guessing Please let the list know if you manage to get the stderr / stdout streams properly thanks regards Mario ________________________________ From: David Welton <dav...@gm...> To: Hecl Devel <hec...@li...> Sent: Monday, August 10, 2009 7:02:23 PM Subject: [Hecl-devel] Phew...

> This patch will make the canvas event keyname consistent accross handset. > Particularly this patch make the MIDP 2.0 canvas example works on my Nokia 1680c This looks ok to me; anyone else care to comment? I had a look through HeclCanvas, and there are some other bits like this: try { // Siemens (S65) Class.forName("com.siemens.mp.lcdui.Image"); KEYCODE_LEFT_SK = -1; KEYCODE_RIGHT_SK = -4; } catch (ClassNotFoundException e1) { Which make it so that the code is only present on the 'offending' phones. I wonder if it would be possible to do this. Incidentally, that looks like a nice phone to test on, thanks for your work! I have my eye open on cheaper phones as I think you could make some fun games for kids with them: http://journal.dedasys.com/2009/07/27/something-id-like-to-see-cheap-j2me-device Although the ideal thing would be something that doesn't make calls at all!

Dear Prosciutto and Hecl lists, I have found Blackberry development is quite hard in terms of setting up the right environment [1][2][3]. As of this moment, Research In Motion does not support the latest version of Eclipse (3.5, particularly the Pulsar distribution) for their Eclipse plugin. Here's a ticket description: https://www.blackberry.com/jira/browse/TOOL-14 If such ticket gets enough votes, this will get attention from RIM and they would ultimately assign some resource to finally fix it and release a new plugin. So please, take 1 minute and enter https://www.blackberry.com/jira/browse/TOOL-14 and vote for this issue to get their attention. Thanks and sorry for the slight off-topic Regards Mario [1]http://prosciutto.boutiquestartups.com/index.php?op=ViewArticle&articleId=32&blogId=1 [2]http://prosciutto.boutiquestartups.com/index.php?op=ViewArticle&articleId=54&blogId=1 [3]http://prosciutto.boutiquestartups.com/index.php?op=ViewArticle&articleId=55&blogId=1 |

This is great news! I'm doing the same on Prosciutto and I am most probably going to need some help to make Hecl run on BlackBerry as well :) What kind of work are you starting, actually?

Either I misunderstand what you're saying or you forget your own code :-) The MIDP documentation states: The default coordinate system's origin is at the upper left-hand corner of the destination. The X-axis direction is positive towards the right, and the Y-axis direction is positive downwards. Applications may assume that horizontal and vertical distances in the coordinate system represent equal distances on the actual device display, that is, pixels are square. A facility is provided for translating the origin of the coordinate system. All coordinates are specified as integers. http://java.sun.com/javame/reference/apis/jsr118/javax/microedition/lcdui/Graphics.html Currently in Hecl Canvas the X=0 and Y=0 position is in lower left, NOT in the upper left as the MIDP 2.0 said. So currently Hecl recalculate all the Y coordinates from 0 on the top to 0 on the bottom. A waste of CPU and batteries like you said. From what I can read from the source files it's in the midp20gui/org/graphics/Drawable.java lines 586: protected int toY(int y) { //System.err.println("toY("+y+") - h="+h+ ", h1="+h1+ " --> " + (h1-y)); return h1-y; } The files said you're the author.

Hi, First of all like to say thanks for creating Hecl. For a long time I've been looking for ways to create program on my mobile. While I think Hecl doesn't fulfill it the way I want to, but I think it worthy my time to improve it. OK, lets straight to the problem. My phone is Nokia 1680 Classic an entry-level J2ME phone. I've bought it around $65, a perfect guinea pig for Hecl. When I try Hecl midlet theres no icon showed. After comparing with other midlet notably MidpSsh, it look like there is a bug in the Hecl.jad and the manifest. In MidpSsh the line goes like this: MIDlet-1: MidpSSH, /small.png, app.Main But in Hecl the line looks like this: MIDlet-1: Hecl, , Hecl So in the interest for an icon in my Hecl, attached with this email is the patch to make Hecl midlet show an icon.

Hi David, I've only begun dabbling with J2ME, but as I understand it J2ME apps will run but they need to be repackaged first. RIM provides a utility that will repackage your .jad as a .cod. Overall, I got the sense (from the BB web site and available tools) that their bread and butter is the enterprise market, so the J2ME support is there, but RIM does not put a lot of focus in supporting the small guy. When I tried my hecl app on BB I found that I could not access the network APIs due to security restrictions and the little bit of gui that worked did not look great. I also found that the icon for the app did not get automatically transferred over by the packaging utility, so the app had a cheesy default icon.

Speaking of Hecl and Blackberry: What can you guys tell me about BB? I have a client who is potentially interested in paying for some work on a port. * What's the difference between their GUI API and the regular old Java ME stuff? Can you run plain old Java ME apps? Do they look awful/out of place/not work quite right? * It's only possible to develop on Windows... correct? Thanks, -- David N. Welton http://www.welton.it/davidw/ http://www.dedasys.com/ |

Hi Dennis As a matter of fact I'm just starting talks with the guys at Open Mobile Consortium and the JavaROSA guys (which happens to be partially the same group, lol), and if I got it correctly, their primary goal is to set up an open source code base for mobile apps that help in health care mostly, like enquirires and so. Actually JavaROSA is mostly aimed at data collection through XForms. I'd love to learn more about your thoughts Dennis, I also think 15 years is still a lot of time and people will need it. Cheers, Mario ________________________________ From: Dennis m s <neo...@gm...> To: Martin Mainusch <DO...@gm...> Cc: hec...@li...

Though not yet open source i believe we can find a way of integrating java card,proscuitto and hecl, in a way...,since java card based GSM SIM card are predominately used in Africa..GSM networks take vitually 95% of the telecom market here (i am sure this is relected in other 3rd world areas) and monochrome non java based devices are most widespread(though this is slowly changing thanks to nokia), however full blown intergration would mean these three "technologies" could enhance end user interaction on higher end java based devices while java card would provide a bare bones application interface to those with low end monochrome phones, ofcourse..i anticipate that these devices will be pahsed out in about 15 years..and UMTS will be full blown,but until then we could still give people the best there is.

Martin thanks for your words! You can use whatever extensions you'd need, I'm only packaging the hecl.jar but I'll take your advise and make various versions with all Hecl flavors for sure! And it will include mwt and kxml extensions for sure. About kxml, it is already integrated into Prosciutto so I think it might be needed to give it some tweaks, I'm not sure how it's integrated into Hecl but I guess if it's the standard way then there won't be any problems. I do have to write more sort of a tutorial, so anyone can move in 2 or 3 steps and have a running application in no time. As well as the examples of course. But it takes time!! I hoped the day had 30 hours! hahah I'll post more soon here I suggest you subscribe to the mailing list as well http://groups.google.com/group/prosciutto for any details as well Thanks Regards Mario ________________________________ From: Martin Mainusch <DO...@gm...> To: hec...@li...
