Mobile Information Device Profile for Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME): Professional

A hands-on programming guide for the most active wireless application environment--cell phones and pagers
In his previous book, Java 2 Micro Edition (0-471-39065-8), Eric Giguere showed why Sun's J2ME is fast becoming the dominant language for all handheld devices. In this new book, the Ortiz-Giguere team explains how to use the J2ME Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP) to write Java applications for wireless devices like cell phones and two-way pagers as well as more powerful devices like the Palm VII. The authors begin with a basic tutorial on J2ME, then quickly move on to explain how to use MIDP to write full-featured applications for cell phones and pagers. Using real case studies and code, they walk developers through all the necessary topics, including GUIs, client/server and peer-to-peer communications, HTTP, XML, databases, WAP, security issues, MIDP and J2EE in the Enterprise and much more.

一本實用的手冊，教導讀者如何在最活躍的無線應用環境中，即手機和傳呼機上進行程式設計。在他之前的著作《Java 2 Micro Edition》中，Eric Giguere展示了為什麼Sun的J2ME正迅速成為所有手持設備的主要語言。在這本新書中，Ortiz-Giguere團隊解釋了如何使用J2ME Mobile Information Device Profile（MIDP）為手機、傳呼機以及更強大的設備如Palm VII編寫Java應用程式。作者們從J2ME的基本教程開始，然後迅速轉向解釋如何使用MIDP為手機和傳呼機編寫功能完整的應用程式。他們通過真實案例和程式碼引導開發人員學習所有必要的主題，包括GUI、客戶端/服務器和點對點通信、HTTP、XML、數據庫、WAP、安全問題、MIDP和J2EE在企業中等等。
