Importing Existing J2ME MIDP Source Code into NetBeans IDE 4.0
This document explains how you can import existing Java™ 2 Platform,
Micro Edition (J2ME™ platform ) source code into a
NetBeans IDE 4.0 project. For more information about NetBeans IDE 4.0 projects
and developing J2ME applications, see:
You must have NetBeans IDE 4.0 and the NetBeans Mobility Pack 4.0
installed before you can start J2ME MIDP development. See the J2ME
MIDP Development Download page for instructions on downloading and installing
the complete environment.
Project Templates
There are three project templates you can use to import a J2ME MIDP project:
J2ME Wireless Toolkit Project -
Use this project template if the project was created using the J2ME Wireless
Toolkit.
Mobility Studio Project- Use this project template if the project was
created using the Mobilty Modules for NetBeans, Sun Java Studio Mobility,
or Sun ONE Studio Mobility.
Under Categories, select Mobile. Under Projects, select Import Wireless
Toolkit Project and click Next.
In the Specify WTK Toolkit project page, Choose the project
you want to import. Click Next.
In the Project Name and Location page, choose a home and
a location for the new project. If you want the project to be your main
project, leave the Set as
Main Project check box checked. Click Next.
Use the Platform Selection page to set the emulator platform
that the IDE will use to compile and run the project. Click Finish.
To test the Project, right-click the project node in the
projects tab, and choose Run Project.
Importing a Project Created in Earlier Versions of Mobility
Using the Import Mobility Studio Project Template
Choose File > New Project (Ctrl-Shift-N).
Under Categories, select
Mobile. Under Projects, select Import Mobility Studio Project and
click Next.
Use the Specify Suite page to locate the MIDlet suite you want to
import. Mobility project definition files have the extension .adcontent.
Click Next.
Use the Project Name and Location page to define a new name and location
for your NetBeans project. Click Next.
Use the Platform Selection page to select the platform emulator that
will be used to emulate device performance when the project is executed.
Click Finish.
Importing a MIDP Project from Existing MIDP Sources
Using the Mobile Project from Existing MIDP Sources Template
Choose File > New Project (Ctrl-Shift-N).
Under Categories, select Mobile. Under Projects, select Mobile Project
from Existing MIDP Sources and click Next.
Use the Specify Sources page to locate the source directory for the
source code and jad file you want to import.
Click Next.
Use the Project Name and Location page to define a new name and location
for your NetBeans project. Click Next.
Use the Platform Selection page to select the platform emulator that
will be used to emulate device performance when the project is executed.
Click Finish.
Importing a MIDP Project from Sources Within a CVS Repository
This approach preserves the file history of your source code. For this approach,
the source files for the original project stored in cvs must be in a folder
named <original project folder>/src.
If the project is not in the src directory, import the sources into
a new project and check the entire project into cvs. This approach is simpler,
but the file histories are not preserved.
Using the Mobile Project from Existing
MIDP Sources Template
Choose File > New
Project.
Under Categories, select Mobile. Under Projects, select Mobile Project
from Existing MIDP Sources and click Next.
Use the Specify Sources page to locate the source directory for the
source code and .jad file you want to import. Click Next.
Use the Project Name and Location page to define a new name and location
for your NetBeans project. This is a temporary directory you will check
back into cvs. Click Next.
Use the Platform Selection page to select the platform emulator that
will be used to emulate device performance when the project is executed.
Click Finish.
Copy the folder nbproject and the file build.xml back
into the original project folder in cvs.
Use the cvs commands to add and commit all
new project files and folders to cvs, except nbproject/private.
Right-click the temporary project and choose Close Project. You can
delete this project outside the IDE.
Choose File > Open
Project and open the project from the original project folder in cvs.
