TSJ000516 - Restricting a Java application to Nokia devices only

From Forum Nokia Wiki


Subject:

Restricting a Java application to Nokia devices only TSJ000516

 

Platform(s):  Device(s), SW version(s):
All All

Category:

Java

Subcategory:

MIDP

Description:

If you want to create an application that works only on Nokia devices and cannot be used on other manufacturer’s devices, use the standard system property: "microedition.platform". Nokia devices always use the same format for the return value containing the device model and the software version, for example "NokiaN93-1/10.0.012". It is possible to look for the string "Nokia" in the property and close the MIDlet with or without notifying the user.
Code example:
//Begin
// Check that the platform is there
    String platform = System.getProperty("microedition.platform");
    if (  platform != null )
    {
           if(platform.toLowerCase().indexOf("nokia")== -1) {
               // Not running on a Nokia device.
             // Remove Start possibility.
               log("Closing application");
               //Close MIDlet
           }else{
             log( "Nokia device: " + platform + " found.");
             //Initialize MIDlet
           }
        
    }else
       {
           //Close MIDlet
       }
//End
