J2ME Event Handling Example
In J2ME programming language, Event Handling are used to handle certain type
of events that are generated at the time of loading MIDlet on the mobile screen.
As you know in J2ME there are two MIDP user interface APIs and therefore, there
are two kinds of events: high-level and low-level
High level event like selecting an item from a list
And low level events like pressing a key on the device
This example is going to show you both type of events handling.
