JSR 75 help

I read in the Nokia Forum that passing fileconn.dir.photos, fileconn.dir.videos and fileconn.dir.tones to System.getProperty() I can get the names of the native folders for photos, videos and tones.

My question is is this feature only Nokia-specific or works on all JSR-75 enabled devices?

Thanks in advance.

The properties you mention are not defined in the JSR-75 specification so you cannot count on them being available in other devices.

Nokia is, however, specification lead of a new interesting JSR called Mobile Service Architecture for CLDC (JSR-248). If you take a look at the draft available for public review (at www.jcp.org) you can see that the properties you mention (and some others) are defined in this JSR.

Devices implementing this new JSR will likely have the properties available.

I'm sorry for the stupid question. I didn't notice that this JSR is not finished yet.

The JSR has only reached Public Review which means that it isn't finished yet. It's not until it reaches Final Release that we can expect to see devices that has implemented it.I'm sure Nokia will have a device ready close to the release of the JSR.

Do you know another way to understand where the photos, ringtones and videoclips are stored? I think that the names of the folders vary from device to device.

No I'm sorry I don't.

Just as you said it's very device dependent. This is one of the reasons behind the development of JSR 248. They want to have a more unified application environment to make it easier for application developers to implement an application that will function on devices from different manufacturers.

Ok, thank you. Another way to access this stuff is by JSR 266 - Unified Message Box Access API, but and this is still under development.
