Is it possible to use gcc to compile for the emulator? or does one absolutely have to install a third-party compiler for this?

Sheesh! Where is the link that says "Report this post to Nokia as extremely APPropriate"?!

How are you using Mappy maps in J2ME? The only Java "player" I can see on their site seems to be J2SE and takes 86k space.

That many, huh?

Here, a central resource class loads a text or raw file at runtime, and then supplies the strings to client classes via constant indexes. You might use the MIDlet itself for this, as it tends to be...

Thanks!

I haven't installed NDS 2 yet so I'm still using 1.1, and this is the S40 emulator that came with it.

I'm creating a spacer graphic in a longish 'Settings' form, to separate out various sections....

I'm doing some stuff in a static initialiser; if that fails, I want the constructor to notice and exit gracefully.

Or is it only possible to call them when the object is constructed?

Maybe the NDS integration is written to the old "topmanager" style. I suspect it needs someone to update it. If Nokia were to open-source it and donate it to NetBeans, say, (and it can hardly be...
