This code snippet demonstrates how to check whether a specific Java ME API is supported on the device and also what version is supported. In this snippet, the API to be checked is the Wireless Messaging API.
Note: The method System.getProperty() can also be used for obtaining several other properties than API versions. See TSJ000306 - MIDP: System properties for a list of possibilities.
import javax.microedition.lcdui.Alert;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.AlertType;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.Display;
String wmVersion = System.getProperty("wireless.messaging.version");
if (wmVersion != null) {
// Wireless messaging is supported. Inform the user.
Alert alert = new Alert("Supported",
"Wireless messaging is supported. Version is: " + wmVersion,
null, AlertType.INFO);
Display.getDisplay(this).setCurrent(alert);
} else {
// Wireless messaging is not supported. Inform the user.
Alert alert = new Alert("Not supported",
"Wireless messaging is not supported.", null,
AlertType.INFO);
Display.getDisplay(this).setCurrent(alert);
}
The MIDlet displays an alert which shows whether the Wireless Messaging API is supported and if yes, which version is supported.
