Is There A Possibility To Run Applets On Android Or Blackberry?

This is what the Java site www.java.com says: 'KVM, the virtual machine for mobile devices, is the counterpart of JVM (Java virtual machine). It is used to run applets and applicat

Solution 1:

Jave applet is still alive, many organizations use it, a lot of HMI's use it,also banks, I wanted to buy few android tablets and use it in our factory for our technicians, But no applet support, so i will go on use my android tablet as game machine for my children.

Solution 2:

Wonder if we can further reprogram DVM to incorporate features of KVM to run applets on Android?

There is very little overlap between what Android provides and what an applet needs, such as AWT. Since applets, as a technology, have been dead for over a decade, I cannot imagine that it would be worth anyone's effort to modify the Android firmware to include the necessary classes and figure out how to run an applet in an Android activity.

Solution 3:

Applets are not supported on the phones by default. Customers can buy a browser which supports it such as the Cloud browser. We have a technology to convert existing Java applets to allow them to run on mobile devices without a special browser. If your company is in need of this service please contact us through our unitedswe website.

Solution 4:

Applets will NOT run on the BlackBerry for various reasons, most importantly that the AWT classes applets depend on are not available on the BlackBerry. The UI model is very different, consisting of either the MIDP UI model or the BlackBerry model, neither of which is AWT.

Going forward, you should be using JavaScript for browser-side computing, it's the only thing that will work crossbrowser on mobile platforms. Applets are very much dead technology, unfortunately.

Solution 5:

I've seen applications running cdlc/mid profile on android, as Android underlying is a Linux kernel anyway, after you root your device, I don't see there's difficulties installing another JVM under linux, which in turns support CDC profiles.

But the problem is will it integrate the default browser well? Will 2x JVM (Dalvik/ OpenJava lets say) make the memory management alot more complecated?
