First off, I am not only new to J2ME but am fairly new to
Java all together. I first took a java class in my Programing Structures 2 class at a technical college I attend.
I am looking to take my basic applications and
applets(some developed through, notepad, some through NetBeans for windows, and some developed from pico on a linux box.) and rewrite my codes to run on a PDA (toshiba e740 running PPC2002 w. out a JVM or VM of any sort). One program is a graphical pie chart program that takes input through an application. There are many others. All that garbage out of the way here are my questions:
1. Can I develope J2ME on a Windows box(this is my preffered method)
2. If so, what software do I need? The J2ME downloads all seem to be linux based. What about JVMs for the PPC, do I need a PPC emulator? What else?
3. Will most basic java programs, ie. mortgage calc, simply run on a JVM enambled PPC or do they need to be recompiled by J2ME?
Please help I am very confused.
