if i build a midlet, and put it on a website, will people using the real mobile device (such as Motorola a008) be able to download and run it? because i saw the following topic at jguru:
Custom class loaders are not permitted in the J2ME CLDC, since they could be used to breach the security of the simplified sandbox security model.
thanks

Sure, others can download it. The restriction on custom classloaders means that your MIDlet can't create custom classloaders. It doesn't mean the devices can't download your application -- the device will have a special-purpose classloader developed by the device vendor.
