Reading custom resource from within MIDP 2.0 midlet - resources

How can one load custom (not an image, nor a sound file) resource file from /res within .jar using MIDP 2.0?

I'm working with MIDP 2.1, but I hope this is in 2.0 too.
Class.getResource(path_to_resource) should give you an InputStream to the file.

getResourceAsStream("/res/yourresource");

Play audio and control start/stop by JSF app

I'm seeking for a solution how could I control playing the audio file from the JSF app.
I don't need the complete solution, just a reference to a component I could use to control playing the audio file (start/stop/change the sound).
I've tried to search in the past questions, but without a success.
My setup is based on Java EE 5, a migration to Java EE 6 might be the option too if really necessary.
If you use J2EE6 maybe you can try primefaces and the component "Multimedia", but this component depends sometimes of external plugins (flash, windows media, etc), but it's an option.
PrimeFaces - Multimedia
Or if you can't use Primefaces, maybe you can try doing a different approach using JQuery and HTML.
JQuery - HTML5 audio controls
Java Script - play audio with JQuery
I hope, this help you. Good Luck.

Web based Oracle Scene Builder analog

I want to provide an ability to create simple java and javafx applications to the users on my website. I've found excellent code editor (Ace) but I don't know how to provide FXML design tool to the Web users.
Is there any options?
ADD I want the users to use this interface builder without any additional requirements like Java 8 or something
How to host SceneBuilder in a web page (requires Java 8):
Build SceneBuilder from it's source.
Package it as a Browser Embedded Application.
Host your packaged application on the Internet and direct web users to its URL.
Other than using a fork of SceneBuilder for your project, I don't know of any other feasible way to provide visual FXML editing capabilities. I would certainly not recommend trying to create from scratch your own FXML visual editor written in either Java or JavaScript.

Do I need to create a new taglib.xml file when migrating JSF 1.1 to JSF 2.0 while keeping JSP as view technology

Hi I have an application that needs to be migrated from jsf1.1 to jsf2.0. I have read the answers posted in Migrating from JSF 1.2 to JSF 2.0 by BalusC.
I have thought not to go ahead converting JSP to facelets.Retain the JSP2.x as the view technology.
I would request someone to clarify couple of my doubts.
As a part of migrating the custom components is it a must to create a new custom-taglib.xml file ? Can't I retain .tld files as it is.
Since JSF implementations like JSF 2.0 provides backward compatibility with older versions, Is it necessary to change the custom compoent code, for the deprecated methods and replace it with the appropriate methods from JSF 2.0? because we are not migrating it completely to facelets.
Do I need to create a new taglib.xml file when migrating JSF 1.1 to JSF 2.0 while keeping JSP as view technology?
No. The *.taglib.xml files are for Facelets what *.tld files are for JSP.

Invoke a One Midlet from another Midlet

I’m working on J2ME Barcode Scanner using Zxing1.7 Library since 1.7 is the latest version which supports J2ME.
Since barcode functionality is already present as part of this Zxing, I need to call ZxingMidlet.java from my component Midlet.
As I’m very new to J2ME, I’m not getting how to invoke a ZxingMidlet from another Midlet.
Please provide your input/support If anyone has already worked on J2ME/has any experience on this.
It will be of great help to me.
Regards,
Deepak
The ZXingMIDlet.java is just an example of how to use their library. You should copy the parts of the code you need into your own project, instead of trying to start another midlet from your midlet.

New JavaFx library

I am using Netbeans 7.2 and JavaFX 2.1. I want to make a library mycompany.utils.sysuser to maintain login information. This library can be used in many different app, with a JavaFX dialog for login/logoff/change password.
I don't know how to begin, a regular Java library or a new JavaFX FXML application?
It doesn't really matter. The JavaFX project might generate some extra code and build tasks which you might or might not need but you can remove them if you need to or leave them be. JavaFX is just another library so you're also OK with a java project, just add JavaFX as a dependency.
It is complete overkill and confusing IMO to have a project for FXML and a project for the java files.
