Importing CDC Projects

If you created a project using the CDC Toolkit, you can import your applications into Java ME SDK projects. You can also use import to create a project based upon a sample project.

Note - Standalone projects created in the CDC Toolkit can be imported. Xlets cannot be imported.

1. The CDC platform name for the Java ME Platform SDK version 3.0 does not match the legacy platform name in the CDC Toolkit 1.0 and the CDC Mobility Pack. Consequently, you get a reference error when you import a legacy CDC project. To avoid this error, create a platform with the legacy name, as described in Create a Platform for Legacy CDC Projects.

   You only need to do this once.

2. Select File > New Project.

3. In the Projects area select the import action for CDC Toolkit. Click Next.

4. Browse to select the project location.

   The wizard detects any applications in the legacy installation and displays their locations on disk. Select a project and click Next.

5. Supply the Project Name, Location, and Folder for the new project. Note, the default name project name and folder name are based on the name of the project you are importing. Click Finish.

The imported project opens in the Projects window.
