Spawning my MIDlet

[giaviv]

Hey guys,

I was wondering if and how it is possible to allow my MIDlet to be started just by the trigger of a specific tag held near the device?
For example lets say my phone is idle, no MIDlets are running at all. Is it possible to cause my MIDlet to run automatically if a specific NFC tag is to be held near the device?

Thanks!

Use the PushRegistry. Simply register your MIDlet to launch for this specific tag type in the JAD-file (or do it programmatically in the MIDlet)

Hey, thanks for the reply. It was very helpful.
I have one more question though - is there a way to get the UID of the tag that triggered the MIDlet launch?
Maybe through the DiscoveryManager somehow?

Thank you
