NetBeans IDE with NetBeans Mobility Pack
Martin Brehovsky, Karol Harezlak
In this article the authors would like to show how to create an application running on a mobile phone, which is able to connect to the server and get information from it. As an example the authors have chosen an application running on a mobile device with support for JavaME with MIDP profile (i.e. most of the mobile phones available today), which is able to monitor virtual machine of the JavaEE server using the Java Management Extensions API. They will use Java 1.5 and NetBeans IDE with NetBeans Mobility Pack installed – this is all we need to create and run the application.
