Java Game Development

Platform

  • Java ME (Java Platform, Micro Edition)
    • formerly J2ME (Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition)
    • Consists of configuration layer and profile layer

    • Configuration Part

      • Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC)
        • Is a subset of CDC, intended for lower end devices
        • Most classes are derived from J2SE and use J2SE class and package names, and CLDC-specific packages use javax.microedition prefix
        • Contains subsets of java.lang, java.util, java.io, CLDC-specific classes in javax.microedition.*
      • Common Device Configuration (CDC)
        • Is a superset of CLDC, intended for higher end devices
        • Includes all APIs defined by CLDC including java. packages and javax.microedition. packages.
        • Contains subsets of java.io, java.lang, java.net, java.security, java.text, java.util and javax.microedition.io

    • Profile Part

      • CLDC Based

        • Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP) 2.0
        • Personal Digital Assistant Profile (PDAP; extends MIDP)

      • CDC Based

        • Foundational Profile (FP)
          • Completes J2SE versions of java.lang, java.util, java.net, java.io, java.text, java.security
        • Personal Basis Profile (PBP; extends FP)
          • Basic AWT, RMI, JavaBeans
        • Personal Profile (extends PBP)
          • Full AWT, applets, java.mah
