J2ME Kxml Connection Example
This is the XML connection example. In this section, we'll develop a J2ME application that a user can connect to the xml file from localhost and print it on the console.
To develop this type of application we have the following steps:
- create a AddressBook.xml file in root folder of your server with name and address tags.
- run the server by startup.bat
- create the MIDlet (AddressDB.java).
- build the midlet and then run.
- approve to send and receive the data using network.
- output display on console.
AddressBook is a simple XML format that summarizes name and address tags. when the program will executed,AddressBook displays the name and address from the addressbook data on the console.
The Entire Application is as follows:
AddressDB.java
