Overview:
Some time ago the thinlet project dropped support for J2ME, but during my search for a XUL API for J2ME, I could not find a more suitable one. Therefore, I first customized the old version for some of my requirements, later on some new features of the thinlet API for J2SE were back ported to this J2ME version. And now its in a state where I think CLDC can compete with CDC using thinlet and maybe more than that
Features:
- Developed on j2me-wtk and Nokia Series 60, testing on Nokia 3650
- MIDP 1.0, CLDC-1.0 Compliant, i.e. can be used on any kind of J2ME device
- All features supported by thinlet API for J2SE
- Full screen text editing for text boxes, with dictionary (T9) support
- Jump mode support (left arrow to activate controls by mnemonic number)
- Touch screen support
Status:
- In production, and being used in my other projects
- Also used by other developers, there used to be Yahoo! group

Sure, actually there used to be a yahoo group where all the files and some patches could be found, I think it has been shut down. I am emailing you the files for now and in future will upload files here in post the links when and if there is an update.

Elias,
Please make sure the XML file is in the jar and is not obfuscated. If that does not help then you will need to debug the project in your IDE, I use netbeans and BB JDE so can help you with the specifics for these.

wondering if thinlet widgets and awt components can be combined together in a project?
April 8th, 2008 at 5:41 am
@wrappinguduke: on the desktop that should be possible, thought the new thinlets for J2SE look marvellous and you may not want to put AWT with it, but on the mobile side the javax.microedition.ui components can not be mixed with thinlets on the same screen because of the rule that you can either use high level or low level components only.

I’m interested by your project “thinlet port”.
Can you send me your codes for more research?
And I have a question about how to include more than one screens which are defined by diferente xml files in a midlet.
Thanks very much.

@Iguo: there is a download link in the original post, top of this page. You can switch XML whenever you want by calling the functions in the API, please refer to the sample application.
