I don't know on IPAQ but I have a Cassiopeia and to run a jxe prog I had to do the following :
0- Copy the classes.zip in \My Documents\j9 (for instance) 1- install PalmTweak (I know, it's not only for Palm) : http://tillanosoft.com/ce/ptweak.html 2- Use PalmTweak to associate jxe files with j9.exe : in application edit, enter : "\My Documents\j9\j9.exe" "-bm:\My Documents\j9\classes.zip" "-jxe:%1" 3- you can change the name, the icon, ... 4- Now you can click on a jxe file

Basically correct. Although you don't need the -bm: option, since we don't have one :-). I assume you meant -bp, but you don't need that either when you use the -jxe: option ...

My first problem with the IPAQ was that i didn't find a command prompt to enter the j9 commands. A posting of Andrew Sandstrom (copied below) in this group helped me out.
Instructions for downloading and running the WinCE 2.11 StrongARM target and demonstrations on an iPaq.
Note that this VM for WinCE 2.11 has not been thoroughly tested on Pocket PC, but several jxes seem to work.
Download the Windows CE/StrongArm beta from www.embedded.oti.com (demonstrations and/or runtimes), and install. This is the HP Jornada 820 demo/runtime download.
Unzip one of the zip files with either a runtime or a net/nonet demo. For example, j9-arm-wince-1.3-beta.zip.
In any of the zip files, the files necessary for running the j9 VM are the files that are in the same directory as j9.exe itself (for example, j9vm13.dll, ivegfx13.dll, etc). The other directories are used to rebuild the VM and are not needed on the target.
Create a directory, for example "vame1.3", and place j9.exe and all files in the same directory into it. Locate some of the sample .jxe files (such as Checkers.jxe, and place them in the vame1.3 directory as well. This directory should now be transferred to the iPaq using ActiveSync.
Place iPaq in cradle.
In Windows Explorer, find the "My Pocket PC" icon, which is under "Mobile Device".
The demo/runtime documentation mentions using the Start/Run menu to open j9. On Pocket PC there are a few problems: - The Run menu is hard to find (Press and hold the big button on the iPaq, then tap on the clock. You'll get a Run prompt). - the j9.exe and .jxe arguments seem to require a full pathname. This makes typing in the Run prompt tedious.
You can create a shortcut to j9.exe on Pocket PC. It is just a little bit of work. For example, assuming you have placed Checkers.jxe in the vame1.3 directory, do the following to make a shortcut to run j9 with the checkers demo:
In Windows Explorer on the desktop, find the "My Pocket PC" icon, which is under "Mobile Device". Expand this and find the j9 installation (e.g. \vame1.3). Still in Windows Explorer, right click on j9.exe, and select "Create Shortcut". Rename this shortcut as desired (eg RunCheckers). This creates a shortcut to j9.exe, but without arguments. Unfortunately it looks like you can't set arguments using the Properties dialog. But you can edit this directly. Copy this shortcut to a folder on Windows (eg c:\temp\). You don't seem to get editing capability when under My Pocket PC\Mobile Device\vame1.3. Edit this file (RunCheckers.lnk) with an editor (e.g. Notepad).
This file looks like:
17#"\vame1.3\j9.exe"
17 is the number of characters after the #. You can add arguments after the j9.exe, by adding extra quoted tokens. Adjust the number at the front of the file accordingly. Note that the first quoted token should be the full path to the executable and nothing else.
For example:
46#"\vame1.3\j9.exe" "-jxe:\vame1.3\Checkers.jxe"
Save this file, and copy back to "My Pocket PC" in the \vame1.3 directory.
From the device, tap on this shortcut. You should be running the checkers demo. --------------------------------------------------------------------

That's odd. Sounds like you built a .jxe with no jcl in it. Which is fine. I guess I just don't normally do that. Certainly makes your .jxe smaller! I should try that ... learn something new every day :-) ...

How do you built a jxe file with the jcl already in it? The jxeLink generator-smartcard only generates .opt files that don't include jcl libraries. And also, is the size of those jxe files smaller than the size of classes.zip + ive.jar + the jxe file combined?
Thanks. Marc

I don't know what the "jxeLink generator-smartcard" is. To get the JCL in the jxe, from the IDE, you need to make sure a number of things are setup correctly: - you have one of our JCLs loaded in the workspace - it's a library project - it's on the Boot Classpath - it's execution path points to the same classes.zip in the xxx\ive\lib\jclYYY. You can do all this from the Workspace/Properties menu item, Class Path tab.
You need to do all of this so that the SmartLinker GUI bits include the appropriate lines in the .opt file. Basically, you should see the following line (or similiar) in your .opt file:
"@{{IVEHOME}}{{/}}lib{{/}}jclXtr.jxeLinkOptions"
If the JCL just gets included in your opt file via something like: - cp {{IVEHOME}}/lib/jclXtr/classes.zip you will be missing important stuff that allows the JCL classes to be included correctly in the jxe.
I don't know about the size difference, but in general a reduced jxe (removeUnused option on) with arbitrary JCL and ive.jar and application classes will be smaller than the classes.zip + ive.jar + application classes. The downside is that if you have MULTIPLE jxes this way, you will have the JCL included multiple times in each jxe. If you look at the jxeRunner example, you can see how it would be possible to build one 'base' jxe with a launcher that could be used by all your applications, but this will require you to have some frameworky stuff in your app.
