Can I have radio buttons and check boxes in J4ME?

[roopesh kumar]

Hi,
Greetings.

I'm developing a simple app which uses Choices. So I want to have
Implicit and Explicit Choices (radio buttons and Check boxes). At the
same time time, I want to respond to key presses of numeric keys. Can
this be possible using J4ME?. If yes, can you please tell me more?

I cannot use lcdui packages from j2me, since it does not support
responding to any key other than soft keys. Please help me out.

Regards,
Roopesh

hey Roopesh,

Its very well possible. Just override the method keyPressed() in the
DeviceScreen. It should do the trick.
But afaik, J4ME internally uses key presses only for navigation and
selection of widgets.

public void keyPressed (int key ) {
super.keyPressed(key);
//Your code to understand any numerical key presses !!
}

Thanks,
/A

Hi Amit,

Thanks for your response.

I got the trick. The documentation is really helpful.
I've one small problem. The RadioButton in j4me is not similar to ChoiceGroup(Exclusive) of j2me. Specially with respect to the display of radio buttons( thats how it got the name right) on the left side of the choices. Is there any way to get this in j4me RadioButton?

Roopesh.
