NetBeans Java Development on PPC - Possible?
"A recently released preview of Mobility Pack for CDC allows to develop Java application for Symbian based devices, in particular for Sony Ericsson P990 and Nokia Series 80, which feature a CDC configuration with Personal Profile. Unfortunately, the tool cannot be used out of box with one of the platforms, which is quite widespread these days,- PDAs running Microsoft Windows Mobile operating system. Luckily, because of extremely versatile build system used in NetBeans, it is not difficult to a basic support for deploying and running the developed application on a Pocket PC device (or emulator). Let's suppose you have some project developed for CDC/PP using Mobility Pack for CDC, ideally using Matisse form designer, and you would like to deploy and run it on a Pocket PC device. For example something like this"An interesting piece on overcoming the limitations of the latest Java tools and porting applications to Pocket PC. I've never been a big fan of Java, but if it's your cup of coffee, than you may be interested in this piece from sun.com's Blog section.

Too bad the blog entry is closed - Greetje has asked whether it's possible to compile on the PPC itself. It surely is - see this PPCT thread.

You should contact the author of Mysaifu (also see my blog on the compliance reports of it - for example, this post) on the chances of switching to Java 1.5. He's really responsive.

" see this PPCT thread."
Did you read the thread? I'm probably aware it exists, considering the fact that I started it...
Thanks for pointing out Mysaifu's VM to me though. Still need a compiler, but I'll scavenge through that thread again once I get a new pocketPC...

Sorry, it was not meant for you, but general readers and particularly Greetje.
