J2ME and RMI

[Alexander Stuckenholz]

Hello.

I just started to work with j2me because i want to interact with an
RMI service. I found a RMI optional package at the java-webpages but
after downloading i do not really know what to do with it.

It contains a bunch of java files, but i think what i need is a jar
file to deploy to my development directory. By the way, i use windows
XP as development platform.

Does anybody know hot to compile the classes, or where i can find a
ready-to-go jar-file for using it in the development environment on
windows?

Regards,

Alex

There's nothing you *can* do with it on a real device; in order to use
RMI those APIs must be implemented on the device previously by the OEM.
You can't include it in your application.

And, to go a step further, RMI requires the ability to serialize Java
objects, something that the MIDP/CLDC does not support. Sorry...
