<h1>Project Plan For Mobile Tools for Java, version 0.9.1</h1>
 +
 +
<p>The goal of the Mobile Tools for Java<sup><small>TM</small></sup> (MTJ) project is to extend existing Eclipse frameworks to support mobile
 +
device Java application development. MTJ will enable developers to develop, debug and deploy mobile Java applications to emulators and real devices.
 +
The base code of MTJ is [http://www.eclipseme.org EclipseME] version 1.7.9.</p>
 +
<p>After MTJ 0.9 release, DSDP MTJ project agreed to have a maintenance release with some new features and bug fixes. The main motivation for this
 +
release is to:</p>
 +
<ul>
 +
<li>Provide new features to MTJ before joining Eclipse Galileo Train,</li>
 +
<li>Fix all major bugs that are found on MTJ 0.9.</li>
 +
</ul>
 +
The target data of this release is the end of 2008. After the release, MTJ will join Eclipse Galileo Train and focus on integration with Galileo and
 +
use Galileo specific features.
 +
 +
<p>MTJ 0.9.1 scope is listed below. It is important to highlight that the bug fixes is a higher priority then any of the new features. Any
 +
features might be dropped out of the scope if there are too many major bugs on MTj 0.9</p>
 +
<ul>
 +
<li>Fix major bugs of MTJ 0.9,</li>
 +
<li>Preprocessing enhancements,</li>
 +
 +
<li>Library support,</li>
 +
<li>Unit Test support,</li>
 +
<li>MIDlet localization tool.</li>
 +
</ul>
 +
 +
<p>Initially there is no plan to change the current APIs that are available on MTJ. Maybe the Library support feature will require a new API, but
 +
if that happen this will be open discussed on MTJ DEV list.</p>
 +
 +
<h2>Release Deliverables</h2>
 +
 +
<p>MTJ 0.9.1 deliverables will be the same as MTJ 0.9. No new deliverables will be added, but all documents will be updated to reflect the new
 +
features.</p>
 +
 +

<p>Although untested, MTJ should work fine on other OSes that support the same window system. For Win32: NT, 2000, Vista, and Server 2003; SWT
 +
HTML viewer requires Internet Explorer 5 (or higher). For GTK on other Linux systems: version 2.2.1 of the GTK+ widget toolkit and associated
 +
libraries (GLib, Pango).</p>
 +
 +
<h3>Internationalization</h3>
 +
 +
<p>Currently MTJ is only available in English and it is not designed to be localized yet.</p>
 +
 +
<h2>Compatibility with Previous Releases</h2>
 +
 +
<p>In terms of compatibility, there are three main aspects that need to be considered.</p>
 +
<p><strong>API Contract Compatibility:</strong> Since this is a maintenance release, MTJ 0.9.1 is fully compatible with MTJ 0.9.</p>
 +
<p><strong>SDK Workspace format compatibility:</strong> MTJ 0.9.1 is fully compatible with MTJ 0.9.</p>
 +
<p><strong>MIDlet Workspace format compatibility:</strong> MTJ 0.9.1 is fully compatible with MTJ 0.9.</p>
 +
 +
<h2>Themes and Priorities</h2>

Project Plan For Mobile Tools for Java, version 0.9.1

The goal of the Mobile Tools for JavaTM (MTJ) project is to extend existing Eclipse frameworks to support mobile device Java application development. MTJ will enable developers to develop, debug and deploy mobile Java applications to emulators and real devices. The base code of MTJ is EclipseME version 1.7.9.

After MTJ 0.9 release, DSDP MTJ project agreed to have a maintenance release with some new features and bug fixes. The main motivation for this release is to:

  • Provide new features to MTJ before joining Eclipse Galileo Train,
  • Fix all major bugs that are found on MTJ 0.9.

The target data of this release is the end of 2008. After the release, MTJ will join Eclipse Galileo Train and focus on integration with Galileo and use Galileo specific features.

MTJ 0.9.1 scope is listed below. It is important to highlight that the bug fixes is a higher priority then any of the new features. Any features might be dropped out of the scope if there are too many major bugs on MTj 0.9

  • Fix major bugs of MTJ 0.9,
  • Preprocessing enhancements,
  • Library support,
  • Unit Test support,
  • MIDlet localization tool.

Initially there is no plan to change the current APIs that are available on MTJ. Maybe the Library support feature will require a new API, but if that happen this will be open discussed on MTJ DEV list.

Release Deliverables

MTJ 0.9.1 deliverables will be the same as MTJ 0.9. No new deliverables will be added, but all documents will be updated to reflect the new features.

Release Milestones

Below is a list of all milestones of this release.

RC1 Dec/05/2008
0.9.1RC1 (API and Feature freeze)

Target Environments

MTJ Deliverables will be tested on the following platforms

Mobile Tools for Java Reference Platforms
Operating system OS version Processor architecture Window system Java 2 Platform JavaME SDK
Microsoft Windows XP x86 Win32 Sun Java 2 Standard Edition 5.0 Update 14 for Microsoft Windows MOTODEV SDK for JavaME 1.3
Microsoft Windows XP x86 Win32 Sun Java 2 Standard Edition 5.0 Update 14 for Microsoft Windows Sun Java Wireless Toolkit 2.5.2 for CLDC
Microsoft Windows XP x86 Win32 Sun Java 2 Standard Edition 5.0 Update 14 for Microsoft Windows Nokia Serier 40 Developer Platform 2.0 SDK
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS 4 update 2 x86 GTK Sun Java 2 Standard Edition 5.0 Update 14 for Linux x86 Sun Java Wireless Toolkit 2.5.2 for CLDC
Apple Mac OS X 10.5 x86 Carbon Apple Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5, service release 4 Mpowerplayer build 1185
Apple Mac OS X 10.5 x86 Carbon Apple Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5, service release 4 Microemu 2.0.3

Although untested, MTJ should work fine on other OSes that support the same window system. For Win32: NT, 2000, Vista, and Server 2003; SWT HTML viewer requires Internet Explorer 5 (or higher). For GTK on other Linux systems: version 2.2.1 of the GTK+ widget toolkit and associated libraries (GLib, Pango).

Internationalization

Currently MTJ is only available in English and it is not designed to be localized yet.

Compatibility with Previous Releases

In terms of compatibility, there are three main aspects that need to be considered.

API Contract Compatibility: Since this is a maintenance release, MTJ 0.9.1 is fully compatible with MTJ 0.9.

SDK Workspace format compatibility: MTJ 0.9.1 is fully compatible with MTJ 0.9.

MIDlet Workspace format compatibility: MTJ 0.9.1 is fully compatible with MTJ 0.9.
