doubt about items in j2me plz help me

[kumarv75]

how to add the following choices as items like item,item1,item2,item3 and so on without using choicegroup in j2me

technology = new ChoiceGroup("Select Technology Which You Know", Choice.MULTIPLE);
technology.append("JAVA", null);
technology.append("J2ME", null);
technology.append("J2EE", null);
technology.append("JSF", null);
form.append(technology);

I guess you could make a ChoiceGroup for every single one of them ?
Which would create one "item" for every single entry to be appended to the form...
Or isn't that what you are trying to ask ?

form.append(technology);

What actually you wanna develop?
A drop down list or something smiler to this..?
What is the problem with the choicegroup?

If you don't want to use a ChoiceGroup (why?)
than you can use StringItem with the appearance-mode of Button:

item1 = new StringItem("Java", null, Item.BUTTON);
item1.addCommand(...);
item1.setItemCommandListener(this);
form.append(item1);

I need to use an item and create a choice instead of using a choice group.............................

item1 = new StringItem("Java", null, Item.BUTTON);
item1.addCommand(...);
item1.setItemCommandListener(this);
form.append(item1);

then can we write like this

item = new Item("Select Technology Which You Know", Choice.MULTIPLE);

As you can see from the Javadoc :
http://java.sun.com/javame/reference...cdui/Item.html

There is no Constructor available for the Item class (after all it's an Abstract class), this is a superclass for other Classes like ChoiceGroup, ImageItem, Textfield etc...
