Symbian Instal sis file programmatically using Java ME

[n6vale]

Hi,

I would like to start the installation of sis file through my Java ME application on device.

I know that if I was using Symbian I could use the RSWInstLauncher like http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.ph...r_Launcher_API.

Can anyone tell me how I can do a similar thing using Java ME?

Thanks

If your target device is symbain one then you can try to execute the platformRequest(path of sis file); in the MIDlet code.

Let us know the results.

Thanks for this, it does work.

Moving on then, has anyone got any idea how I might be able to perform the install silently (currently the user has to click through all the install messages).

Thanks again.

AFAIK there is no way for this, as user has to agree/allow the various things while installing the same.

I'm pretty sure there is no way to do it silently, letting an application install other apps through the net without telling the user would be a very very big security breach, the first app might install a virus or even a monitoring app without alerting the user about it....
