Name
javax.microedition.midlet.MIDlet
Synopsis
This abstract class is the base class of all MIDlet applications. The methods specified in this class allow MIDlet management software to create, start, pause, and destroy a MIDlet. Hence, a MIDlet can be in one of three states: paused, active, or destroyed.
A MIDlet becomes active when the startApp( )
method is called. In this state, the MIDlet may hold resources. To
change the MIDlet’s state to pause, the pauseApp( )
method is used. The destroyApp( )
method is used to terminate and enter the destroyed state. In the
destroyed state, the MIDlet must release all resources and save any
persistent data. This method can be called from the active and paused
states. If destroyApp( )
is passed
true
, the MIDlet must clean up and release all
resources. If false
, the MIDlet
may throw
MIDletStateChangeException
, indicating it does not
want to be destroyed.
