HI MTJ,
One of the interesting features that is available on MTJ 1.0
is the support to distribute libraries with MTJ. Those libraries are presented
to the developer on the project creation wizard and the user developer is able
to add them to their projects. After that, the libraries are automatically
packed with the final MIDlet suite JAR. Code assist and javadoc will also be
accessible on the java editor. Currently this mechanism is used by the JMUnit library
that is distributed with MTJ.
It would be interesting if we could add more libraries on
the following MTJ releases. So if if your company has some internal library
that you think can be applicable to other developers, why not consider contributing
it to MTJ? Some possible basic libraries could be:
-
Some basic game engine
-
XML parser library
Some benefits for your company could be:
-
Reduce maintenance effort of the
library. The code would need to be contributed to the foundation (as EPL)
-
Visibility to the company since the company
name can be presented on the dialog where the user selects the library (library
description). It is also possible to add the company URL
-
The company could sell a more
complete version of the library
If you are interested and want some more information about
it, feel free to contact MTJ Team. The links below have more information about
the library support on MTJ
