(FileConnection) Share apps between 6600 and 6630

[matteopiccioni]

hi, i need to write one application that in nokia 6630 read on filesystem for images, while in 6600 read into jar
(6630 has FileConnection and PIM API)

If i use this code, my apps doenst starts in 6600 while in 6630 works well:

public void run() {
try
{
if (System.getProperty("microedition.io.file.FileConnection.version" )!=null) {
String link = "file:///Memory Card/00003OUT.png";
FileConnection fc = (FileConnection) Connector.open(link);
if (fc.exists()){
InputStream is = fc.openInputStream();
Image image = Image.createImage(is);
is.close();
frmImage.append(image);
}
fc.close();
} else
{
try {
Image im = Image.createImage("/00003IN.PNG");
frmImage.append(im);
} catch (IOException e) {
frmImage.append(e.toString());
}
}
}catch (Exception e){
frmImage.append("file: "+link+"exx: "+e);
}
}


In the code above, if i delete line
"FileConnection fc = (FileConnection) Connector.open(link);"
the app runs on 6600.
the problem is the cast "(FileConnection)"
if i do:
"FileConnection fc = null;"
"Connection cn = Connector.open(link);"
the app works again in 6600..

but i need the same app work in 6600 and 6630

is possible?

Thanks
Matteo

Stupid question: Why don't you use image files in the JAR file for both devices?

Hi matte,

R u getting a compilation error???It will not occur if u compile ur application with MIDP2.0 api for 6600 app as well. Then it should work. since AFAIK System.getProperty("microedition.io.file.FileConnection.version") will return null for 6600.

i have no compilation error,
i compile using midp2.0 and cldc1.0 (for 6600)

the app is installed well (in 6600 and 6630) but when i try to start it, in 6600 nothing happens while in 6630 works...
