Re: JAVA on the N900 is possible!
 

At the moment, the answer is no. There is a way but it is not so easy: OpenJDK with MicroEmulator + a skin to ease use, then you have to download and start .jad or .jar files in MicroEmu.
Working, slowly because Java bytecode is interpreted and JVM+MicroEmu requires too much memory.

That is why I'm working on the port of Symbian JRT http://developer.symbian.org/wiki/JRT as a proof of concept. For a real end-user deployment, I guess we will face many licensing and royalties issues...

There seems to be a new release Java SE for Embedded 6 Update 21 which doesn't expire (at least there is no mentioning of this).

Tried it out ... works well!

Re: JAVA on the N900 is possible!
 

Which one do you use:
headless / headful ?

Does it work together with OpenJDK or have I to uninstall it first?

Re: JAVA on the N900 is possible!
 

I've downloaded the headful version.

Since it's just a tarball which can be unpacked to a directory of your choice, it should be possible to use it without uninstalling OpenJDK first (I didn't test it). Of course, as long as the OpenJDK "java" binary is linked to /usr/bin/java, you will always have to specify the full path to the Sun "java" binary in order to use it.

Re: JAVA on the N900 is possible!
 

I have compared MicroEmulator startup with OpenJDK and Oracle JavaSE embedded (armv7, headful) and Oracle JavaSE runs a little faster.
If you want it to be used for MicroEmulator, edit /usr/bin/microemulator script and replace "java" by the full path to the location where you extract Oracle JavaSE embedded.

The microemulator 3.0.0 is really nice!!!

It works with google maps full screen!

But there is a little thing:
My keyboard.
The regional settings are not respected.
The up and down buttons don't work, only left and right.

With an external bluetooth keyboard everything works well.

Is there a chance to change that behaviour?
