Java Mobile Orbiter
Contents
Introduction
The JavaMO is a lightweight Mobile Orbiter client. It receives rendered pictures from the Bluetooth dongle Orbiter and sends keystrokes back. The protocol used over Bluetooth is BD.
JavaMO is under active development. An alpha version can be found on the charonmedia svn tree.
Installation
For most phones you need the jad and the jar file. Copy both to the phone and select the jad from the file or application manager.
Classes
The JavaMO consists of multiple java classes:
- BDCommand
- BDCommandProcessor
- JavaMO
- SerializeClass
- BTServer

Compilation
Preparations
Checkout
Checkout the source from the charonmedia.org svn tree:
svn co http://svn.charonmedia.org/home/hari/javamo cd javamo
Installing Java
First we install the Java SDK. I used version 6 update 6. Download it from the sun download center: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
chmod +x ./jdk-6u6-linux-i586.bin ./jdk-6u6-linux-i586.bin
That gives us the directory "jdk1.6.0_06".
Now install the wireless toolkit version 2.5.2: http://java.sun.com/products/sjwtoolkit/download.html
./sun_java_wireless_toolkit-2_5_2-linux.bin
Specify the _full_ path to the "jdk1.6.0_06/bin" directory (this example assumes javamo was checked out to "/home/hari/src/javamo"):
Enter a path to the Java 2 SDK: /home/hari/src/javamo/jdk1.6.0_06/bin
After the installation you should have the following subdirectories in the javamo directory:
- jdk1.6.0_06
- WTK2.5.2
Building the application
just run "make":
make
You will find the "JavaMO.jad" and "JavaMO.jar" file in the "output" directory if the compile succeeds.
Install the application on the phone
That strongly depends on the type of phone. For Nokia Symbian Series with a memory card you can use the "install" target in the "Makefile". Just adapt the Bluetooth address of the phone in the "Makefile" and run:
make install
Then go to the file browser on the phone, switch to the memory card and select the "JavaMO.jad" file. Make sure you have enabled the installation of unsigned applications in the application manager.
Building the documentation
make javadoc
Direct your browser to the file "doc/index.html"
