|
While dedicated technologies such as e.g., Sun's J2ME
MIDP offer a simple programming model for mobile applications,
appropriate support for modularizing the implementation
of technical concerns such as data persistence,
screen management, session management, etc. is still missing.
As the result, the implementation of such concerns cuts
across several applications, or even several places within a
single application.
In this paper, we introduce the notion of a logical mobile
container aimed at automating the process of nearly transparently
adding technical concerns to the core functionality
of a MIDP application. The container we introduce is logical:
Code generation allows us to profit from high-level
abstractions without adding physical layers which are too
costly for a mobile application. We present an extensible
mobile container framework for MIDP applications, called
MobCon, which is implemented as a generative framework based on annotations.
