Start midlet after install

[jsloan]

Is it possible to run a midlet (automatically) just after the installation is complete?

If so can someone please let me know how this can be done.

thanks.....

Hi,

IMHO this is not possible in the present devices...We have to manually start the midlet.

On MIDP 2.0 devices you could try using the install notify parameter in the jad so that the server is notified when installation occurs and uses the Push Registry to wake up the application.

Hi shmoove,

I have tried some test apps with push registry on siemens devices; Their one yellow star will be comming in the soft keys ; so that we will get indication that a midlet needs to get started; so that when we press the soft key the midlet will get started.

I have one doubt ; I thought with push registry there would be some user interaction needed so as to start the midlet by pressing the soft keys( or any other key).
Do u mean that no user interaction is needed to start the midlet with push registry ?
Plz correct me if I am wrong.
