Develop J2ME apps in Ubuntu with Eclipse, EclipseME & Sun Java Wireless Toolkit 2.5.2

Leandro Del Teso — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 23:32:45 +0000

1-Download Sun’s Java Wireless Toolkit 2.5.2:
http://java.sun.com/products/sjwtoolkit/download.html

2-Install dependencies (found in the previous link):

yo@notebook# sudo apt-get install libxpm-dev libxt-dev libx11-dev libice-dev libsm-dev libc6-dev libstdc++6-dev

3-Install Sun’s Java Wireless Toolkit 2.5.2. Go to the dir were you downloaded the installer:

yo@notebook# chmod +x sun_java_wireless_toolkit-2_5_2-linux.bin
yo@notebook# ./sun_java_wireless_toolkit-2_5_2-linux.bin

You must enter the location of the JVM (I’m using JDK6 and it is located in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin/) and select a destination dir.

4-Install EclipseME plugin using the instructions found in:
a) http://eclipseme.org/docs/installation.html
b) http://eclipseme.org/docs/installEclipseME.html
c) http://eclipseme.org/docs/configuring.html

They work perfectly!

5-Now go develop some cool app for your mobile :-)
