JSR Support

The Java ME Platform SDK supports many standard Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) defined through the Java Community Process (JCP) program. JCP APIs are often referred to as JSRs, named after the Java Specification Request process.

See Table 1 for a full list of supported APIs. The Java ME SDK provides documentation describing how certain APIs are implemented in the SDK. Many supported APIs do not require special implementation considerations, so they are not discussed in this help set.

The CLDC/MIDP platform is based on the Mobile Information Device Profile and Connected Limited Device Configuration (JSRs 118 and 139).

The CDC platform is implemented to support Advanced Graphics and User Interface Optional Package for the J2ME Platform, Personal Basis Profile 1.1, and the Connected Device Configuration (JSRs 209, 217 and 218).

JSRs that are not part of the platform are referred to as “optional packages.“ All optional packages are supported onthe CLDC/MIDP Platform.

In Java ME SDK version 3.0 the CDC platform does not support JSR 239 (Java Binding for OpenGL ES API, and JSR 280 (XML API for Java ME).
